Darrenpan20 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Hello, I have a dell Inspiron 7359 and my trackpad has only basic features. For now, I am using the latest from this post as it is the only one that works. https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/9070-a-new-voodoops2controller-for-alps-touchpads-on-sierrael-capitan-1011410115/however, my trackpad isn’t an alps, it’s Elan and when ever I try the ApplePS2SmartTouchpad kext, it kernel panics. I tried the SmartElan one and only the keyboard works. I will attach an problem reporting files if needed. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kocurr Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Hello, I have a really big problem. KEXT works, no problem with keyboard but with touchpad... Any multigesture isn't working. Two fingers tap, two fingers scroll - not even talking about 3-4 fingers gestures. Works only - 1 finger tap. Can you help me please ? - My touchpad is Synaptics - HP Elitebook 840 G3.

Hammief Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Driver works very well on my XPS 9550 running macOS High Sierra, much better than Voodoo. However, when I use this driver, sleep no longer works, which is a must for me as I travel a lot with my laptop. Is this a known bug? I've tried googling but could not find any help!

notamacperson Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Hi everybody, I have an Elan touchpad in my ASUS K501UQ laptop and the latest beta and 4.6.5 kext didn't work for me on High Sierra - it said that it could not detect touchpad during boot ("not detect touchpad" to be precise). Does this mean that my touchpad model is not supported? How to extract touchpad model info? I tried using lspci from Linux but it only said "Elan", nothing more specific. Thanks!

MagistraNocte Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Fixed sierra OS X functions like Launchpad, Dashboard, Mission control etc., which are not working by redirecting to new keyboard shortcuts. (Needs to be configured at Keyboard shortcuts) Hello, do any of you know what the mentioned new keyboard shortcuts are? how do I know if they're not written in the documentation?

MagistraNocte Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 By "needs to be configured at keyboard shortcuts" EMlyDinEsH means that when you make a trackpad gesture that is set to open launchpad (for example) it doesn't actually directly open it, instead it just do a keyboard shortcut, and you have to match that exact keyboard shortcut with launchpad in system preferences (if you set a different shortcut for launchpad in system preferences, the gesture doesn't work), but the documentation is not updated to v4.7 (as you can see in the part you quoted) and there is no mention of what these shortcuts he set as a workaround actually are (notification center is the only one mentioned but is wrong), I had to figure those out with a third party software that detected keys pressed when I made the gestures (ukelele). For anyone actually interested in knowing it, this is what I found (QWERTY ISO layout): 1 - Applications Switch: command+"left arrow" 2 - App close: command+"right arrow" 3 - Launchpad: control+shift+command+L 4 - Mission control: control+up 5 - Dashboard: F12 6 - Left Space/Full Screen apps switch: control+"left arrow" 7 - Right Space/Full Screen apps switch: control+"right arrow" 8 - Application window: control+shift+command+A 9 - Minimize app: works as expected (command+M) 10 - Toggle Full screen Switch: alt+command+F 11 - Backward: alt+command+"[" 12 - Forward: alt+command+"]" 13 - Desktop: F11 14 - Notification center (keyboard shortcut): control+shift+command+N (and not command+shift+N as stated in the documentation)15 - Show Properties/Info: works as expected (command+i)16 - Hide/Show Dock: alt+command+D (but it doesn't seem to work)17 - Notification center (soft mode): doesn't work18 - Zoom reset: works as expected (command+zero)19 - Finder: alt+command+space (but I'm not shure what it should be doing, doesn't seem to work)20 - Force Quit: work as expected (alt+command+esc)21 - Right click: doesn't work as right click, instead it works as "20 - Force Quit" (alt+command+esc)22 - Middle click: doesn't work 33 - should work as "F23" instead it's the real right click, but only when set to a tapping gesture 34 - should work as "F24" instead it's the real middle click, but only when set to a tapping gesture35 - Left click: work as expected but only when set to a tapping gesture The documentation really need to be updated, otherwise the kext cannot be configurated properly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcoross20 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Hi,I've just installed the kext and I got the trackpad preferences panel working but I'm not able to use any kind of multitouch feature, for example I can't even use two fingers to scroll. Any idea or suggestion? Thanks in advance I have a Lenovo 500s 13isk and it should have an Elan touchpad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
