31 | 1. Introduction | ||
32 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
33 | |||
34 | Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver is aware of two different | ||
35 | hardware versions unimaginatively called version 1 and version 2. Version 1 | ||
36 | is found in "older" laptops and uses 4 bytes per packet. Version 2 seems to | ||
37 | be introduced with the EeePC and uses 6 bytes per packet. | ||
38 | |||
39 | The driver tries to support both hardware versions and should be compatible | ||
40 | with the Xorg Synaptics touchpad driver and its graphical configuration | ||
41 | utilities. | ||
42 | |||
43 | Additionally the operation of the touchpad can be altered by adjusting the | ||
44 | contents of some of its internal registers. These registers are represented | ||
45 | by the driver as sysfs entries under /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? | ||
46 | that can be read from and written to. | ||
47 | |||
48 | Currently only the registers for hardware version 1 are somewhat understood. | ||
49 | Hardware version 2 seems to use some of the same registers but it is not | ||
50 | known whether the bits in the registers represent the same thing or might | ||
51 | have changed their meaning. | ||
52 | |||
53 | On top of that, some register settings have effect only when the touchpad is | ||
54 | in relative mode and not in absolute mode. As the Linux Elantech touchpad | ||
55 | driver always puts the hardware into absolute mode not all information | ||
56 | mentioned below can be used immediately. But because there is no freely | ||
57 | available Elantech documentation the information is provided here anyway for | ||
58 | completeness sake. | ||

64 | 2. Extra knobs | ||
65 | ~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
66 | |||
67 | Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver provides two extra knobs under | ||
68 | /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? for the user. | ||
69 | |||
70 | * debug | ||
71 | |||
72 | Turn different levels of debugging ON or OFF. | ||
73 | |||
74 | By echoing "0" to this file all debugging will be turned OFF. | ||
75 | |||
76 | Currently a value of "1" will turn on some basic debugging and a value of | ||
77 | "2" will turn on packet debugging. For hardware version 1 the default is | ||
78 | OFF. For version 2 the default is "1". | ||
79 | |||
80 | Turning packet debugging on will make the driver dump every packet | ||
81 | received to the syslog before processing it. Be warned that this can | ||
82 | generate quite a lot of data! | ||
83 | |||
84 | * paritycheck | ||
85 | |||
86 | Turns parity checking ON or OFF. | ||
87 | |||
88 | By echoing "0" to this file parity checking will be turned OFF. Any | ||
89 | non-zero value will turn it ON. For hardware version 1 the default is ON. | ||
90 | For version 2 the default it is OFF. | ||
91 | |||
92 | Hardware version 1 provides basic data integrity verification by | ||
93 | calculating a parity bit for the last 3 bytes of each packet. The driver | ||
94 | can check these bits and reject any packet that appears corrupted. Using | ||
95 | this knob you can bypass that check. | ||
96 | |||
97 | It is not known yet whether hardware version 2 provides the same parity | ||
98 | bits. Hence checking is disabled by default. Currently even turning it on | ||
99 | will do nothing. | ||

106 | ================== | ||
107 | |||
108 | 3.1 Registers | ||
109 | ~~~~~~~~~ | ||
110 | |||
111 | By echoing a hexadecimal value to a register it contents can be altered. | ||
112 | |||
113 | For example: | ||
114 | |||
115 | echo -n 0x16 > reg_10 | ||
116 | |||

118 | |||
119 | bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | ||
120 | B C T D L A S E | ||
121 | |||
122 | E: 1 = enable smart edges unconditionally | ||
123 | S: 1 = enable smart edges only when dragging | ||
124 | A: 1 = absolute mode (needs 4 byte packets, see reg_11) | ||
125 | L: 1 = enable drag lock (see reg_22) | ||
126 | D: 1 = disable dynamic resolution | ||
127 | T: 1 = disable tapping | ||
128 | C: 1 = enable corner tap | ||
129 | B: 1 = swap left and right button | ||
130 | |||
131 | * reg_11 | ||
132 | |||
133 | bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | ||
134 | 1 0 0 H V 1 F P | ||
135 | |||
136 | P: 1 = enable parity checking for relative mode | ||
137 | F: 1 = enable native 4 byte packet mode | ||
138 | V: 1 = enable vertical scroll area | ||
139 | H: 1 = enable horizontal scroll area | ||
140 | |||
141 | * reg_20 | ||
142 | |||
143 | single finger width? | ||
144 | |||
145 | * reg_21 | ||
146 | |||
147 | scroll area width (small: 0x40 ... wide: 0xff) | ||
148 | |||
149 | * reg_22 | ||
150 | |||
151 | drag lock time out (short: 0x14 ... long: 0xfe; | ||
152 | 0xff = tap again to release) | ||
153 | |||
154 | * reg_23 | ||
155 | |||
156 | tap make timeout? | ||
157 | |||
158 | * reg_24 | ||
159 | |||
160 | tap release timeout? | ||
161 | |||
162 | * reg_25 | ||
163 | |||
164 | smart edge cursor speed (0x02 = slow, 0x03 = medium, 0x04 = fast) | ||
165 | |||
166 | * reg_26 | ||
167 | |||
168 | smart edge activation area width? | ||
