Compaq Presario 1600i touchpad doesn't work

#1 Post by ckwhy »

Hi All,

I searched the forums but couldn't find any answers. I have a Compaq Presario 1600i and the touchpad doesn't work in PuppyLinux. It works in Knoppix and SimplyMEPIS. I tried going into /etc/X11/xorg.conf and added these:

Code: Select all

#PS2 mouse
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver

   Identifier "Mouse0"
   Driver "mouse"
   Option "CorePointer"
   Option "Device"      "/dev/psaux"
   Option "Protocol"    "PS/2"
   Option "Emulate3Buttons"  "true"
   Option "ZAxisMapping"    "4 5"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
EndSection
That did not help. Then I tried modprobe psmouse, but it complains that psmouse module is not found. Any ideas how I can get going?

Thanks!!
