Any success with the synaptics driver?

[Daniel Drake]

Hi,

Has anyone ever got the "synaptics" driver (xorg-x11-drv-synaptics)
working on the XOs with the new touchpad?


I just tried it and was surprised to find out that it doesn't work:

(EE) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad no synaptics touchpad detected and no
repeater device
(EE) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.


any ideas?
Daniel
