35 .Nd Apple touchpad driver
37 To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
38 your kernel configuration file:
39 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
44 Alternatively, to load the driver as a
45 module at boot time, place the following line in
47 .Bd -literal -offset indent
53 driver provides support for the Apple Internal Trackpad
54 device found in many Apple laptops.
56 The driver simulates a three\-button mouse using multi\-finger tap
59 A single\-finger tap generates a left button click;
60 two\-finger tap maps to the middle button; whereas a three\-finger tap
61 gets treated as a right button click.
63 A double\-tap followed by a drag is treated as a selection gesture; a
64 virtual left\-button click is assumed for the lifespan of the drag.
67 attempts to filter away activity at the horizontal edges of the
68 trackpad\-\-this is to keep unintentional palm movement from being
69 considered as user input.
73 supports dynamic reconfiguration using
77 Pointer sensitivity can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
78 .Nm hw.usb.atp.scale_factor .
83 driver provides support for the following Product IDs:
87 Core Duo MacBook & MacBook Pro (IDs: 0x0217, 0x0218, 0x0219)
89 Core2 Duo MacBook & MacBook Pro (IDs: 0x021a, 0x021b, 0x021c)
91 Core2 Duo MacBook3,1 (IDs: 0x0229, 0x022a, 0x022b)
93 12 inch PowerBook and iBook (IDs: 0x030a, 0x030b)
95 15 inch PowerBook (IDs: 0x020e, 0x020f, 0x0215)
97 17 inch PowerBook (ID: 0x020d)
