Touchpad not working on Aluminium MacBook 5.1

[CarolineM]

Books fine with latest snap but when we get to the Name screen the mouse doesn't work

this macbook has a new touchpad so its probably a driver issue.

It would have been good if I remembered who had this mac book so we could test if it was fixed in the latest snapshot. I think it was James the Austrailian living in Paris.

Thanks for the reminder, will check tomorrow.

This bug of no trackpad functionality is still present on the new macbook using SoaS snapshot downloaded today (Soas2-200905241902.iso).
But this is the same for me in Fedora 11 beta (liveCD), presumably this bug...

As in the Fedora bug you referred to, can you try to provide the
/var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of lshal -l.

This might help us get this fixed in Fedora.

Just finished tracking this down upstream with some help from #fedora-devel.

Should not be an issue in F12 (Kernel 2.6.30)

UPDATE: Matthew has kindly backported this to F11 (2.6.29.4-168) Testing now
