Output of hwinfo --mouse and xorg.0.log | grep synaptics in both 12.1 and 12.2
Output of dmesg Xorg.0.log |

Seems it's now falsely detected as clickpad device. In the other way round: the clickpad isn't detected correctly now, no? The whole openSUSE-specific clickpad patches have been dropped from 12.2 xorg synpatics input driver because the upstream already has some support. If it doesn't work, it's a problem in the upstream driver. Well it is a clickpad. It seems like it's still detected, according to the second line in the log (though I'm not sure what the first line means). But it's definitely stopped working. [ 12.712] (II) synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: ignoring touch events for semi-multitouch device [ 12.712] (II) synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: found clickpad property I presume it's an upstream issue - perhaps we still need some of those patches after all! Just to be sure: try xf86-input-synaptics.rpm in OBS X11:XOrg repo. I think I had that package installed by default. At any rate, it didn't change anything. =/ I tested 12.2beta2, and clickpad itself worked on HP ProBook 4520s. (The installation didn't succeed fully, but I could click in YaST installation.) You are testing with 12.2 beta2, right? It's known that 12.1beta1 was broken regarding clickpad. But the package in 12.2beta2 should work. Note that the pointer moves badly when you click via clickpad on 12.2b2. It's because of the dropped patches that can't be applied any longer to the latest code. Well this is embarrassing! I tested on both beta 1 and beta 2, but apparently not enough on beta 2, because the click buttons _do_ work on beta 2. In fact, the only problem with beta 2 is that the touchpad's "disable the touchpad" region no longer works. Still a regression, but a much less serious one. I'm not sure how I got this so wrong - mea culpa for sure! OK, then please give the kernel messages on 12.2b2 and the complete Xorg.log. Created attachment 496516 [details]
Output of dmesg
Here's dmesg. The only other thing I would add is that when I disable the touchpad with the GNOME control panel, the "tap to disable" region does not light up orange, indicating disabled, as it does in 12.1.

Xorg.0.log
OK, found out a typo in the kernel patch checking the LED capability. Fixed now. Thanks a bunch! I checked the current status, and it seems that this doesn't work well as expected. Not only that it's too sensitive (i.e. wrongly detects the double click in other areas), also it crashed the whole X session. So I don't think it's good to keep this broken patch now. We'd need to drop it, unfortunately.

Created attachment 496096 [details] Output of hwinfo --mouse and xorg.0.log | grep synaptics in both 12.1 and 12.2 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:12.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/12.0 My touchpad/clickpad no longer works in 12.2. The left and right click buttons are completely nonfunctional. Since tap-to-click is off by default in Gnome, I have to plug in a mouse and enable that in order to gain left-click functionality. It remains impossible to right click and there seems to be no way around this. Also, I can no longer tap to disable the touchpad when I want to use a mouse. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to use the touchpad click buttons. 2. Attempt to disable the touchpad. Actual Results: * Left and right click buttons are nonfunctional. * The "disable touchpad" region is nonfunctional. Expected Results: * Left and right click buttons work. * Disable touchpad region works. This is a regression - my touchpad was supported perfectly in openSUSE 12.1. I'm therefore hopeful that this can be fixed. :-) The touchpad CAN be disabled if you install the Gnome 3 touchpad extension.
