+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1088588 +++ Top Softbutton area for the W540 touchpad is currently not supported in fedora, to fix it, 70-touchpad-quirks.rules should contain a line like this: ATTR{[dmi/id]product_version}=="ThinkPad W540*", ENV{ID_INPUT.tags}="touchpad_softbutton_top" I am attaching all the information you had asked for in the earlier bug cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version ThinkPad W540 cat /sys/devices/pnp0/*/id PNP0c01 PNP0c02 PNP0103 PNP0200 PNP0800 PNP0c04 PNP0b00 LEN0071 PNP0303 LEN0034 PNP0f13 SMO1200 PNP0c31 touchpad-edge-detector /dev/input/event4 Touchpad SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on /dev/input/event4 Move one finger around the touchpad to detect the actual edges Kernel says: x [1472..5112], y [1408..3834] Touchpad sends: x [1024..5095], y [2022..4832] \ Thank you. best regards Ajay
Created attachment 894243 [details] kernel patch I have built a local kernel with this patch and the touch pad seems to work fine now
Thanks, note you likely also want to patch /lib/udev/rules.d/70-touchpad-quirks.rules to also get the top button areas recognized as such. We're trying to find a better way to deal with this then adding per model quirks, can you do: dmesg | grep synaptics And paste the output here please ? This info may help us towards a better fix in the future.
Yes of course I did that to the /etc/udev/rules here, should I submit a patch for xorg-x11-drv-synaptics too? Here is the dmesg output dmesg | grep synaptics [ 1.085130] psmouse serio1: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 8.1, id: 0x1e2b1, caps: 0xd001a3/0x940300/0x127c00, board id: 2722, fw id: 1484859 [ 1.085144] psmouse serio1: synaptics: serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio1/input0 Thanks & best regards Ajay
