BTW: Can you also update the ATP manual page.

Please fetch it from freebsd-current as of today. I made some changes there recently.

Subject: Re: Macbook touchpad driver

Hello,

I have merged the recent work done by Huang Wen Hui to support Wellspring trackpads into the original 'atp' driver.

'atp' supports two distinct families of Apple trackpad products: the older
Fountain/Geyser and the latest Wellspring trackpads. The first version made
its appearance with FreeBSD8 and worked only with the Fountain/Geyser
hardware. A fork of this driver for Wellspring was contributed by Huang Wen
Hui. This new driver unifies the Wellspring effort and also improves upon the
original work.

I have been testing it on a recent MacBookPro (Wellspring trackpad) and I am satisfied with it. It includes all the features of the original driver and should be able to support both families of hardware.

I would like to solicit help to test this driver widely; especially on older Fountain/Geyser hardware. I would also like to initiate the review process to commit this to FreeBSD.

thanks,
rohit.
