kernel issue. From the drivers POV, the touchpad disappears and a different device comes back. That device doesn't look like a touchpad though and hence the driver doesn't activate on it. If you look at the second half of the log, you'll see that evdev finds x/y relative and a few buttons. Touchpads, if not initialized by the kernel, usually look like PS/2 mice. Tapping and other features are implemented in hardware/firmware and look like a button click once the event reaches user space. Please report this to the kernel, it needs to re-initialize the touchpad. |
