ELAN and FocalTech (Smart Touchpad) driver Issues

Recommended Posts

@EMlyDinEsH,

 

Given that this driver is clearly derived from original Apple code, licensed through the APSL (Apple Public Source License), I posted a query regarding the source here: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/1948-elan-and-focaltech-smart-touchpad-driver-mac-os-x/page-71&do=findComment&comment=47782

 

Since I never received an answer, I repost here...

 

Perhaps I missed it, but I didn't see a link or a download for the source to this driver.

 

Where is it?

Sorry for the delay as i was too busy and i've already replied to your request in another thread so please read here             #703            .  I will update my source at github ( where i already have Initial source for my driver released long time ago.

Hello, the driver works on an Asus F301A with Elan touchpad. I can turn it off with the Fn key (F9), however if I set "Ignore built-in trackpad when mouse or wireless trackpad is present" unders systemprefs > accessibility the trackpad stays on, I have an usb logitech mouse plugged in.

 

OSX yosemite, efi clover, driver v 4.2,

Hello,

 

the driver won't work for me. It's an  Asus TP300LA, and I THINK it's a FocalTech touchpad, since people say "it's Asus' new touchpad" (which doesn't work with Linux either btw). However, I tried this driver and it didn't recognise the touchpad.

 

Thanks!

Yeaa.. So do I, on Asus TP300LD

I'm really sure it's using elan touchpad.

Tried 4 & 4.2 version..

No trackpad found

Hello,

 

Driver works almost perfectly on V3 hardware (Lenovo G480) running OS X 10.10.2 on clover.

 

Problem I'm having: after sleep/wake, pointer and scrolling speed changes to a very slow setting. Anyone have this problem or know a fix?

 

Edit: Now works correctly. The problem was caused by the key Elanv3HWLegacyMode=true in the Info.plist.
