"psmouse" module is built-in from 5.10.2 kernel. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/69158

Fixed from kernel linux 5.10.13.arch1-2.

This is kernel module for touchpads with enable/disable LED button in left corner.
This video show how touchpads looks like:

To load/reload module without rebooting you can use:

  sudo modprobe -r psmouse
  sudo modprobe  psmouse

After kernel update you should reboot and reinstall this package.

vantu5z, thank you so much! I really appreciate it. It worked :)

Alexi246, thanks! sha256sums updated, try to install it now.

Hi guys I apologise for posting on here but I do not know what else to do. I am having an issue with building this package on my HP Pavilion G7 I do have the xf86-input-libinput installed and the touchpad does work perfectly including two-finger scroll and right click but the corner disable-sensor and LED does not work whcih is why I want to install this module. It seems to be SHA integrity issue. I also do have the psmouse module in certain paths: /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse /sys/module/serio/holders/psmouse /sys/module/libps2/holders/psmouse /sys/module/psmouse /sys/module/psmouse/drivers/serio:psmouse The output is as follows: alexi@beast synaptics-led]$ makepkg -f ==> Making package: synaptics-led 4.8-1 (Sun Feb 5 08:01:06 SAST 2017) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found SHA256SUMS -> Found synaptics-led.install -> Found kernel.patch ==> Validating source files with sha256sums...

Package updated to 4.8 version. After installing check if file "psmouse.ko.gz" installed in proper place, for this: look at /usr/lib/modules/{YOUR_EXTRAMODULES_DIR} YOUR_EXTRAMODULES_DIR - should be extramodule dir for your current kernel. If installation is OK, reboot PC to check if it load patched psmouse module and creates necessary link in /sys/class/leds/.., for this: look that link "/sys/class/leds/psmouse::synaptics" is exist For test You can run "journalctl -b | grep kernel | grep synaptics" Output should be like this: ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: psmouse serio4: synaptics: queried max coordinates: x [..5756], y [..4876] ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: psmouse serio4: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 7.5, id: 0x1e0b1, caps: 0xd00073/0x640000/0xa0400/0x0, board id: 1397, fw id: 780218 ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: synaptics: led: checking for led ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: synaptics: led: your product ID is 64 ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: synaptics: led: looks like you have one ноя 30 10:45:29 vantu5z-book kernel: synaptics: support LED control

Hi there vantu5z, still errors: patching file Kconfig patching file synaptics.c Hunk #2 succeeded at 660 (offset 10 lines). Hunk #3 succeeded at 1438 (offset 9 lines).

SubZ3r0, package updated, try it.

Hi guys, i tried to install this package in kernel 4.4.5-1 in Manjaro and i get errors: -> Building psmouse.ko make: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/4.4.5-1-MANJARO/build' make: *** No rule to make target 'psmouse.ko'. Stop. make: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/4.4.5-1-MANJARO/build' ==> ERRO: Uma falha ocorreu em build(). A cancelar... ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build synaptics-led. ==> Restart building synaptics-led ? [y/N] Can you help ?

Get this error when try to install with kernel 4.0: /tmp/yaourt-tmp-vantu5z/aur-synaptics-led/src/drivers/input/mouse/cypress_ps2.c: В функции «cypress_process_packet»: /tmp/yaourt-tmp-vantu5z/aur-synaptics-led/src/drivers/input/mouse/cypress_ps2.c:552:2: ошибка: слишком мало аргументов в вызове функции «input_mt_assign_slots» input_mt_assign_slots(input, slots, pos, n);

Looks like that error is due to: http://allanmcrae.com/2014/12/pacman-4-2-released/ I fixed this by changing: make -C "/lib/modules/$_cur_kernel/build" M="$PWD" psmouse.ko to make -C "/usr/lib/modules/$_cur_kernel/build" M="$PWD" psmouse.ko and "$pkgdir/lib/modules/$_cur_kernel/extramodules/psmouse.ko.gz" to "$pkgdir/usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.19-ARCH/psmouse.ko.gz" I'm not sure about how extramodules line /should/ be done, but that works for me..

Builds fine but getting this when installing: ZeeBook% pacman -U synaptics-led-3.11-7-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz ... error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) synaptics-led: /lib exists in filesystem synaptics-led: /lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/extramodules exists in filesystem Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded. Just for sanity's sake I ran -Qo on both symlinks too: ZeeBook% pacman -Qo /lib /lib is owned by filesystem 2015.02-1 ZeeBook% pacman -Qo /lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/extramodules /usr/lib/modules/3.19.2-1-ARCH/extramodules is owned by linux 3.19.2-1
