[PATCH 2/4] Enable hardware tapping for ALPS touchpads

From: Peter Osterlund
Date: Sun Jan 30 2005 - 05:35:19 EST


When hardware tapping is disabled on an ALPS touchpad, the touchpad
generates exactly the same data for a single tap and a fast double
tap. The effect is that the second tap in the double tap sequence is
lost.

To fix this problem, this patch enables hardware tapping and converts
the resulting tap and gesture bits to standard finger pressure values
(z), which is what mousedev.c and the userspace X driver expects.
