Hi,

I use a Dell Vostro 3750 laptop with touchpad reported by Windows as
"Dell Touchpad", manufactured by "Alps Electric" connected to PS/2 mouse
port.
In Windows all functions like tap scrolling, two finger zoom in/out and
others work perfectly. Unfortunately in Linux this device is recognized
only as a PS/2 mouse and lacks all touchpad specific functionalities.
Has anybody succeeded to configure X to fully use this device?

TIA & Regards,
Wojtek
