Anyone can get trackpad to work after sleep/wakeup?

[zxzhaohui]

Hi I am new here. Just a small question.

 

My PC is Dell inspiron 1464, now using Mavericks.

its trackpad is ALPS, and I used VoodooPSTrackpad.kext to drive it.

From 10.6 till 10.9, the trackpad could not work after sleep/wakeup.

Many other types of trackpad on many notebook seems also suffer this problem.

 

Recently I saw someone wrote the EADP kext,

that fix the problem where audio(AppleHDA) could not work after sleep/wakeup,

so I think, the problems is similar, what about the solution?

 

Could someone write some patch or 3rd kext to fix this?

If not, what is the reason for the trackpad problem?

something might be taking over the irq when it gets released during sleep. it's usually HPET.

Try this developing kext, see if it works any better. The latest version is here, no_log.zip. Prepare to have an external mouse if it doesn't detect your touchpad.

It works! After sleep/wakeup, the trackpad still works!

Many thanks! I think this is a great work!

 

One more small question though,

the trackpad's sensitivity experence is worse that the previous one i used (VoodooPS2Controller.kext).

Tap function seems very sensitive sometime but then not so much.

Does there has some parameters that i can adjust?

I looked into the Info.plist in Trackpad, but seems not so much for adjust.

 

Sometimes it seems you need to tap twice to function, for example,

One tap on the yelloew button to minimize any window to the Dock, but it does not, you need to tap again, then the window minimize to the Dock.

Then one tap on the application icon in the Dock should resume the applicaiton,

but it shows a right click menu "Open this application"

tap again, the application window resume.

Okay, that's a good start. Which version have you tested?

See if this works better.

I used the no_log.zip you provided (and some strange files apears when unzip the files, see the image).

I will try the other one and report back.

you don't need the dsym files. there is an option in Xcode to not create those. instead of dwarf/dsym just compile dwarf.

This driver has the same problem, but it's acceptable for me.

All I need is Left/Right click and move after sleep/wakeup, so I can bring the notebook in a conference and drop the mouse,

because it is inconvenient to use a mouse on such situation.
