Mihael Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hello friends! I need help with porting linux driver for my Synaptics touchpad.

alex.daoud Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I know I'm bumping this topic but I'm currently writing an I2C HID driver that should work for your I2C touchpad. I've been working on it for the past 3 months and it should be done soon. I will need your help to test it when it is finished. Keep an eye out in the tablet section for when I post the thread. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/299024-need-to-port-i2c-synaptics-linux-touchpad-driver-to-osx/#findComment-2108803 Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex.daoud Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I will need to know what I2C bus you have on your machine. My drivers only support the Intel Lynxpoint I2C drivers, enumerated from the ACPI, with IDs INT33C2 and INT33C3. Please provide a copy of your IOReg (in .ioreg format) and your DSDT and I will check for you. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/299024-need-to-port-i2c-synaptics-linux-touchpad-driver-to-osx/#findComment-2108828 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to know which device corresponds to your touchpad though. You will need to edit the DSDT to enable all devices disabled by the OS check. Follow the following post to do it then post your IOReg again: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/299021-109-on-the-surface-pro-3/?p=2092610 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/299024-need-to-port-i2c-synaptics-linux-touchpad-driver-to-osx/#findComment-2108956 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have two touch devices listed. A touchpad and a touchscreen. Does your device have a touchscreen? It will be interesting to get the two working together. You also have a sensor hub like on my tablet which means you probably have an accelerometer. Does the screen rotate when you turn the device over in Windows? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/299024-need-to-port-i2c-synaptics-linux-touchpad-driver-to-osx/#findComment-2108972 Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrinist Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Hello guys, any updates on the I2C.kext file? I have an Asus UX305CA UHD laptop and just realized that the touchpad is I2C only and I can't use it on El Capitan. I have to use a USB wireless mouse to operate my laptop. Thanks guys.
