Hi EM'

I have a v4 touchpad here, single button type.

Below is a snippet from the boot log.

Symptoms:

No keyboard.

No Touchpad.

My 'working' setup is the v3.0 driver, with modified keyboard kext, that ignores the keyboard probe (blindly returns true - as the Voodoo driver does).

I'm unsure why the touchpad fails with the later drivers though?

Only difference is that v3.0 returned 'Elan: Touchpad Enabled successfully', where v3.5 returns 'ETD :: Touchpad enabled.'

v3.0 does not appear to put the touchpad into 'Absolute Mode' either.

Any ideas?

your driver is simply fantastic! i remember to use it since the first one and it gets better and better! many thanks!

now i need some help here with some minor things: touchpad goes crazy after wake from sleep, for some reason if i dont boot verbose most of times the touchpad dont move and the only 3 finger swipes that works are three up for launchpad and down for choose the application.

any help is welcome.

it is a samsung ativ book 4 with v3 as the driver reports.

again, thank you very much!

EDIT: swipe solved. still need to solve the crazy behavior after wake up and the verbose strange bug.

try repairing your disk permissions with disk utility. wrong file permissions cause strange things to happen.

couldnt find any solution for the "crazy trackpad after wake" issue. any help?

probably you guys know, but there is a bug where when you select some text it deselects when you right click on it.

thanks!

10.9.2, v3 elan, samsung ativ book 4.

I have a strange issue where my touchpad and keyboard work from a cold boot, however after a system restart they do not appear to be recognised by the driver. I've included logs below:

Edit: now working in the 3.7 release!
