    This patch fixes the case where certain laptop touchpads (ALPS)
    are disabled if the machine boots with a usb mouse plugged in.

    Without it, users have to choose between using either a usb mouse
    or the touchpad. With it, any combination is possible and the usb
    mouse can be attached/removed at runtime without breaking the
    touchpad.

    The patch is ported from a SuSE kernel to 2.6.7-rc2. It's been
    around for at least two minor releases. The maintainer was
    contacted regarding merging but failed to respond.

    Patch vital to certain laptop users. Please apply.
