Hi Archers,
I'm runnig Arch X64 on a Dell Latitude E5410. The touchpad is not recognized as
"xinput list" only shows following:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Generic Mouse id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_2M id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Dell WMI hotkeys id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
xf86-input-synaptics and xf86-input-evdev are installed on the system.
Does someone have an idea on how to fix the problem? ;)

My touchpad wasn't recognized either after restarting a few days ago, but restarting again fixed it for whatever reason. I guess the module can fail to load sometimes.
