DetailsDescription:
----------- After updating to testing/xf86-input-evdev-2.2.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz, the AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint (touchpad) of my Dell Latitude D810 goes complete wonky (testing/xf86-input-mouse-1.4.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz doesn't cause problems). While the 'nipple' input works flawlessly, horizontal movements on the touchpad cause the cursor to jump back back and forth from a vertical line along the left of the screen to some parallel vertical line elsewhere (the jumping is so rapid, that the cursor becomes ghosted). Vertical movements are dictated absolutely coordinates---I can actually touch hear and there on the touchpad and have the cursor jump accordingly. Anyway, the touchpad is useless. I solved the problem by downgrading to what was a testing version xf86-input-evdev-2.1.3-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz Additional info: --------------- My xorg.conf is basically empty; it only has: Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "radeon" VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc" BoardName "M24 1P [Radeon Mobility X600]" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" EndSection I've also got xorg-server 1.6.0-1 |

I guess I'll be doing a little compiling!
PLEASE update the testing package.
