|
|
Does anybody know the necessary kernel modules to get the T14s trackpad working? In lsusb, there is a device for synpatics inc (06cb:00f9), but it does not show up in libinput |

juliedeville,
Share dmesg on a pastebin please. All of it. WE need to see what is missing as well as what is there. _________________ Regards,

juliedeville,
Here is your device being detected in dmesg.
Code: | [ 2.601830] usb 3-3: new full-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
[ 2.730763] usb 3-3: New USB device found, idVendor=06cb, idProduct=00f9, bcdDevice= 0.00 |
but there is no driver for it.
I was expecting to see it as a generic mouse.
Code: | Linux version 6.6.74-gentoo | looks like gentoo sources.
Does your kernel have
Code: | ┌────────────────────────────────────────────── Synaptics USB device support ──────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ CONFIG_MOUSE_SYNAPTICS_USB: │
│ │
│ Say Y here if you want to use a Synaptics USB touchpad or pointing │
│ stick. │
│ │
│ While these devices emulate an USB mouse by default and can be used │
│ with standard usbhid driver, this driver, together with its X.Org │
│ counterpart, allows you to fully utilize capabilities of the device. │
│ More information can be found at: │
│ <http://jan-steinhoff.de/linux/synaptics-usb.html> │
│ │
│ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the │
│ module will be called synaptics_usb. |
