[Bug]: No numberpad trackpad device found #189

Closed Pryme-Minister closed 3 months ago

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

Describe the bug

I have tried to install this using all 3 of the install methods, and all of them end up with a failure due to no numpad trackpad being found.

I have managed to get the pad working with a different driver, so I know I have supported hardware but that driver breaks other things on my system so I would rather not use it.

Expected behavior

Trackpad driver install complete and working.

@Pryme-Minister Hello, thank you for creating an issue. Could you attach here your DSDT table, please:

$ sudo apt-get install iasl
$ cd <work-dir>
$ sudo cp /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT DSDT
$ sudo iasl -d DSDT
$ sudo gedit DSDT.dsl

Not sure if I did that right, never done this before.

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

Git wont let me upload the files that were output.

ldrahnik commented 3 months ago

@Pryme-Minister I need that file content. Do it in the same way how was done here.

DSDT.zip

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

I was able to zip it, hopefully that's what you need.

@Pryme-Minister Hm, what is the output of the command $ i2cdetect -l? Can you post it here.

Try to run manually the command below for found numbers, I mean for found I2C buses - whether is backlight of NumberPad enabled:

$ i2ctransfer -f -y $NUMBER w13@0x15 0x05 0x00 0x3d 0x03 0x06 0x00 0x07 0x00 0x0d 0x14 0x03 0x01 0xad

disable it again you can then using command below (only previous last number differs)

$ i2ctransfer -f -y $NUMBER w13@0x15 0x05 0x00 0x3d 0x03 0x06 0x00 0x07 0x00 0x0d 0x14 0x03 0x00 0xad

It should be probably one of the Synopsys DesignWare I2C adapter mapped to number 1,2.

ldrahnik commented 3 months ago

@Pryme-Minister I wrote l as Lenka not 1 as number 1.

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

I get command not found when doing the other two.

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

I typed it out instead of copy paste and used "1"

ldrahnik commented 3 months ago

@Pryme-Minister The package i2c-tools does not install i2ctransfer? Try the latest master, should be fixed, when is missing tool i2ctransfer, the i2c check is now skipped.

Let me know about result, please.

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

Ok progress! The pad now illuminates with a long press in the right corner, pulls up the calculator with a swipe in the right, and adjusts brightness with a long press in the left corner. Also, my system restarts normally now which the other driver was breaking. However the number pad is not working. I assume I need to activate some sort of "num lock" but there is no option on my keyboard.

ldrahnik commented 3 months ago

@Pryme-Minister Please, try the latest master.

Pryme-Minister commented 3 months ago

You are fantastic sir! All functionality is restored.
