Hi John! This is not a correct place do add new proto data. I already
proposed reducing this table to just for PROTO_V2, but Dmitry was not
happy about it.

Hi Pali. :)


Anyway, look at function alps_identify() where is detection for ALPS_V8:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/input/mouse/alps.c?h=v4.10-rc8#n2829

V8 is already detected when e7 is (0x73, 0x03, 0x28) and ec[1] is 0x01.
What are your ec data? Probably ec[1] is not 0x01 as otherwise it should
be already detected.

I have just found that code and am confused because that is not the same code I have running on my system. My ec[1] is 0x01 so you are correct, it should already be detected and my patch is unnecessary. Sorry for the inconvenience.


Btw, from where you got your proto data in this patch?

I pulled it from dmesg:

[john@slate ~]$ dmesg|grep "Unknown ALPS touchpad"
[ 3.071891] psmouse serio1: alps: Unknown ALPS touchpad: E7=73 03 28, EC=73 01 13
