Yes, the pre-compiled releases cannot drive the Y530's touchpad

So, i will do that.
Once I get Xcode, I will try and tell you.

One more thing: if I remove Appleps2smarttouchpad.kext, my laptop keyboard is not working, but touchpad works

What model is your touchpad? The trackpad driver I provided is self-compiled.

One question xiaoM4095I. Is our computer (Lenovo Legion Y530) compatible with BCM94352z? In your guide you say it is compatible with y7000 but im confused about the compatibility with the y530.
Im having some trouble fixing my touchpad, in my dsdt i can find both drivers Elan and syna, i know that elan is not working right now. Do you think i can use syna?
