           Summary: Add support for Apple BCM5974 multitouch trackpad
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: v2.6.26-rc7
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Input Devices
        AssignedTo: drivers_input-devices at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: rydberg at euromail.se


Latest working kernel version: none
Earliest failing kernel version: none
Distribution: none
Hardware Environment: Macbook Air
Software Environment: ubuntu
Problem Description: The touchpad on the new Macbook Air and Macbook Pro Penryn
are not supported by the current drivers. As a consequence, the synaptics
system does not work on those computers, and the mouse handling is very poor.
The attached driver, bcm5974, remedies this. It operates the same way as the
appletouch driver, and could preferrably be added to the same place,
drivers/input/mouse/.

Steps to reproduce: none
