--- Comment #18 from Martin Wilck ---
This recent mail from the Research ML is worthwhile:
"More and more people here have the Dell E7470 with the ALPS DualStick
Trackpoint. Unfortunatly, it is so sensitive on a normal Linux system,
that it is unuseable.
But: if I boot the installer, the Stick works perfect! So I tried to
find out what the differnce is: in the normal system, the Stick is
detected correct as ALPS DualStick, while in the installer, it is only
detected as ImPS mouse. I wasn't able to find out why this is the
case."
And later:
Please try:
psmouse.proto=imps
On your kernel cmdline.
Thanks, that works!
The stick works with the imps protocol but not with alps/2. Perhaps we could
approach upstream again with this information.
