So I finally tested this on the laptop I have access to with an led touchpad. It worked just fine (correct path in modinfo AND an led device when loaded). Also, this laptop is _not_ run off of testing (whereas my other computers are). From this I really don't have any further insights for you guys. As far as I can tell everything is good.

Still not sure what to tell you. Can anyone else confirm that this is working for them?
The module needs to be a gzip. So psmouse.ko.gz should be in extramodules. You can try running "sudo depmod $(uname -r)" but this should be the default.

#3 - and i just noticed that /lib/modules/3.1.1-arch has an "extramodules" folder there, is this where it should go instead? the extramodules folder is a soft link to /lib/modules/extramodules-3.1-arch/
so i have my other module (lenovo_acpi.ko) and psmouse.ko.gz. i tried unzipping the psmouse, same result, system module in use. my other module loads fine either way..

meant to say modinfo | grep extra, depmod -v also shows nothing regarding extramodules (including the other module i have there)

ok, i rebuilt this package:
changing _kver in PKGBUILD = error, cant find sources
changing final install output manually to 3.1.1 - module not found, uses psmouse.ko (system)
no changes = system psmouse in use (per modinfo)\
depmod -a = no module shown with path "extramodules"
I have another module residing in the extramodules folder which does load when modprobe'd, but the psmouse,ko seems to take precedence if its in the main modules folder. the path in modinfo supports this.

kver is meant to be the base version -- just 3.x -- not 3.x.y.

i'd find what $kver in PKGBUILD is incorrect, i change it to right, but insmod give me same error. my linux headers and current kernel version have same numbers

Do you have the linux-headers which match your linux installed? I still can't recreate this.

"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.
