What sort of touchpad do you have - ALPS, Synaptics or?

My ALPS touchpad works using XFRee86.unc and I remember Roberts menioned his worked using xsetup.sh

If it is an ALPS touchpad you should try Juanito's synaptics_alps module (in the modules section of the repo).  I was able to get the touchpad on my friend's newish Sony Vaio working with that (Thanks Juanito!).  First you need to have XFree86 working to use that though.

Question: why can't you use a usb mouse (if I understood correctly)?  At least use that while you're getting your touchpad working ..
