Re: trackpad not working on Laptop NetBSD 11

Hallo Martin,

in the meanwhile I upgraded to 11.1, no significant changes in video or 
trackpad direction.
WiFi however seems to have more luck, wrote you a private email.

Ok, then we shall work on it... somehow.

That gives a lot of scary messages in dmesg!

I suppose the relevant things are:

[     1.046636] pms0 at pckbc1 (aux slot)
[     1.046636] pms0: synaptics_probe: Not synaptics.
[     1.046636] pms0: ALPS PS/2 E6 signature: 0x0 0x0 0x64
[     1.046636] pms0: ALPS PS/2 E7 signature: 0x73 0x2 0x50
[     1.046636] pms0: ALPS PS/2 EC signature: 0x10 0x0 0x64
[     1.046636] pms0: autoconfiguration error: Failed to initialize an 
ALPS device.

Can I extract more info?
