[realizelol]

Hi SkyrilHD,

i am using a Dell Latitude E6540 with an integrated ALPS v3. Unfortunately the driver isn't loading:

(no keyboard/no trackpad/no trackstick - not really needed)

How can I help you? What further information do you need?

[SkyrilHD]

Is this the debug version? There is not enough logging that would help at the moment.

Since the keyboard does not work at all, check if you have duplicate PS2 kexts. Make sure your config is correct (kext order: VoodooInput -> VoodooPS2Controller -> VoodooPS2Keyboard -> VoodooPS2Trackpad).

Does it also happen with acidanthera's VoodooPS2?

[realizelol]

Hi SkyrilHD, thanks to the quick response.

Yes, this is the debug version and this is the only voodoops2 kext in it's loaded in the correct order.

It also happens to acidanthera's version.

[SkyrilHD]

Since there is an issue with acidanthera's version as well, it probably needs a bug report to the bugtracker repo.

Could you try v1.0.4, as this is the version before the acidanthera rebase?

Btw, do you happen to have SMCDellSensors? This causes problems with ALPS touchpads. Removing the kext fixes many issues.

[realizelol]

I don't use the SMCDellSensors as these sensor readings are also not compatible to my notebook.

here's the output of 1.0.4:

which is indeed a bit different.

Does the keyboard work?

For logging, use this instead: sudo dmesg > alps.log the log will be saved in the home directory by default.

[realizelol]

No, the keyboard isn't working oob but after a wakeup.

Attached you'll find the dmesg (keypresses are "asterisked") file: alps.log .

[SkyrilHD]

I have never seen this before: ApplePS2Keyboard: sending key **=** down ApplePS2Keyboard: sending key **=** up But else there is no helpful info.

Increase the buffer size with this boot-arg: msgbuf=1048576 and run the dmesg command immediately after boot to get initialization logs.

Is there any kext where the keyboard works fine?

[realizelol]

Hi SkyrilHD,

the sending keys was sed by me to override my sudo/users password. Attached you'll find a completely debug dmesg file with increased msgbuf: full_debug_dmesg.log

The 1Revenger1 kext is working fine: 1Revnger1 - Version 1.0

[SkyrilHD]

Thanks. I assume you tried this with v1.0.4. Found this in the log: ALPS: Hardware initialization failed. TouchPad probably won't work

But earlier, the touchpad gets detected: ALPS: Touchpad with Signature { 115, 3, 10 }ALPS: Found a V3 Rushmore TouchPad with ID: E7=0x73 0x03 0x0a, EC=0x88 0x08 0x22

Since 1Revenger1's kext is working, can you try the attached kext below? This kext is before I implemented VoodooInput (this commit to be exact) VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.0-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

Thank again, attached you will find the mentioned kext output: full_debug_dmesg.log

[SkyrilHD]

Do keyboard and trackpad work?

[realizelol]

Yes,

Keyboard and Trackpad and also Trackstick are working.

[SkyrilHD]

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.1-DEBUG.zip

Give this a try. Keyboard should work but the trackpad might not work. Check with FingerMgmt if you see any input, if the touchpad does not work.

[realizelol]

yes, you're right. The keyboard is working but the trackpad or the trackstick isn't working. But the funny part is that the rightclick will work but the leftclick not. And no gestures.

In FingerMgmt I only see a grey window.

[SkyrilHD]

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.1-DEBUG.zip

Again, keyboard should work, but trackpad might not. This time, VoodooInput is now included and needs to be added to the config (if you have OpenCore). Check again with FingerMgmt if you see any input.

[realizelol]

Keyboard is working. Trackstick is working (Just moving, no Keys), Trackpad isn't working (just the rightclick).

[SkyrilHD]

Trackstick buttons were not implemented back then, so it's expected not to work. Right-click is pass-through, so that's why it works. There was a bug where you had to put a finger on the touchpad for the left click to work.

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.3-DEBUG.zip

Same behaviour.

[realizelol]

Keyboard isn't working (but ACPI Keys -> Brightness). Trackstick isn't working (No keys). Trackpad isn't working (No keys).

[SkyrilHD]

Hmm, okay.

Let's see if that works. VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.2-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

Keyboard is working again, Trackstick is working again (also with rightclick), Trackpad isn't working (but rightclick). Nothing to see in FingerMgmt.

[SkyrilHD]

Seems like, the ported code from Linux is breaking on macOS.

I reverted one of the changes: VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

If this does not work, try the kext below: VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

The second one look promising, Keyboard is working, Trackstick is working completely (maybe not the middle one - I don't used the stick) - Trackpad not working but both keys.

[SkyrilHD]

OK, the fix for that has been pushed. Now, the trackpad: Can you send me a dmesg log now? (Basically move your finger around, then run the command). Also, do you see any input in FingerMgmt?

[realizelol]

FingerMgmt just shows nothing at all. dmesg looks like it's working but don't move the cursor. full_debug_dmesg.log

[SkyrilHD]

Can you try this? I think it saved the wrong finger value.

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

unfortunately the same behaviour. full_debug_dmesg.log

[SkyrilHD]

OK, this fixed at least 1 finger not reporting to VoodooInput. So, my guess is that VoodooInput is acting up (possibly due to resolution). But I don't see anything obvious. I disabled VoodooInput temporarily, as I want to see if the cursor moves without VoodooInput.

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

yes this will move the cursor, but if you touch it, the only way it moves is down-right. only a simple touch -> no move.

[SkyrilHD]

Can you try this? VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

What do you mean by "only a simple touch -> no move"? Tapping does not work?

[realizelol]

Sorry, I mean that by a simple touch the cursor will move to down-right, so you don't have to move the finger over the touchpad. This kext will do the same. Moving the cursor on touch to the down-right.

full_debug_dmesg.log

[SkyrilHD]

and this does not happen with 1Revenger1's kext?

[realizelol]

No, 1Revenger1's version is working correctly. 🤔

[SkyrilHD]

I changed the resolution. Let's see if that does any movements VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

[realizelol]

No there's again no movement, but could it be that this is "de-calibrated"?

if the ones and zeros should be the trackpad field. Looks like the finger is surrounded by 1. Then the finger will be always in the right-down corner. Maybe that's the reason why the previous kext always put me to to the right-down corner?

Finger count of VoodooInput is always 2?

Again there's also no visible input in fingerMgmt.

[SkyrilHD]

It is only 2 if you put 2 fingers down on the trackpad. It could possibly the reason why the cursors goes right-down...

Could you do logging with 1Revenger1's kext? Use debug mode, otherwise the trackpad field won't be visible.

EDIT: Can you try this version of 1Revenger1's kext? (In theory, 1 finger should work fine, but 2+ fingers should break) VoodooPS2Controller.kext.zip

[realizelol]

This is the original version of 1Revenger1: full_debug_dmesg.log VodooBoot.log

I will now test your version. mentioned before.

[realizelol]

Same issue, the cursor is moving to down-right. full_debug_dmesg.log VodooBoot.log

[realizelol]

I found out, that the touchpad will scroll with two fingers. Also if I put a finger on the touchpad I can move the cursor with another finger. Not really good as it sometimes want to scroll.

I also see some input in FingerMgmt.

Using the latest artifact: https://github.com/SkyrilHD/VoodooPS2-ALPS/actions/runs/1766394903

[SkyrilHD]

Sorry for being inactive, was busy for quite few days. But anyway, I disabled pressure report completely and added more logging with this build, hopefully this works.

VoodooPS2Controller-1.0.6-DEBUG.zip

1 finger is not fixed in master, probably that's why it only registers on 2+ fingers. Will push it now. (This build includes the fix)

[realizelol]

Yes, indeed it's working now. I also see the input in FingerMgmt. The only thing that it's not recognized by the Systemsettings.

Sometimes the two finger scroll is a bit sloppy but maybe that's because the driver isn't loaded into systemsettings. Do I need to have bluetooth activated for "VoodooInputs" MagicMouse simulation?

I actually disabled a lot of kexts for testing.

Ok, it seems like you need bluetooth for trackpad recognition. It's now shown in Systemsettings after activating bluetooth kext again.

[SkyrilHD]

I don't think it is related to Bluetooth, but one does need working battery status afaik.

[realizelol]

Ah ok, I also disabled that kext. To understand better what I mean is:

• The two-finger-scrolling isn't always recognized. -> The scrolling itself is very smooth. Also the one-finger-pointing is more accurate. All other kext are having a dithering while the finger stays on touchpad.

Also more than 2 finger's aren't recognized.

[SkyrilHD]

Can you send a log maybe, first for two-finger-scrolling and one for more than 2 fingers

[realizelol]

attached you'll find these logs: sometwofingerscrollings.log 5-times-3fingers.log

[SkyrilHD]

Hmm, both logs look fine to me. Can you perform three finger gestures (e.g. Mission Control or Expose)? If they do, do 4 finger gestures work as well (This should work unreliably)? About two finger scrolling: Does it jitter? Does FingerMgmt detect anything when you cannot scroll?

Found this in the code, I need to figure out how to implement it.

[realizelol]

Three fingers (mission control / expose) are working. I had tested switching between fullscreen apps which was previously activated (I don't use the other gestures) was not working until I disabled and re-enabled it, sorry. Four fingers are also working.

It looks like that comment. If I scroll it's ok, then sometimes you'll see that the cursor will move instead of scrolling. In FingerMgmt I can see a two fingers scrolling.

[realizelol]

correct me if I am wrong, but you only want to implement this code to this version of touchpad? What about using this if statement if (priv.proto_version == ALPS_PROTO_V3_RUSHMORE) { ?: https://github.com/SkyrilHD/VoodooPS2-ALPS/blob/99f603d40e881df93e67b2a2ef0631722f498017/VoodooPS2Trackpad/alps.cpp#L3165

[SkyrilHD]

I will add it for V3 and V5 like it was implemented in the pre-VoodooInput code. If there is any issue with scrolling on other touchpads, I will specify it for Rushmore touchpads. The issue, I guess, is how to detect scrolling. If I find something I will upload it here.

[SkyrilHD]

Can you try this kext by Dr. Hurt? This does not include scrolldebounce. If scrolling works, implementing the code will be easier. (Keep in mind this does not have VoodooInput)
