Probook 4530s Trackpad Help

[archalys]

Okay well, I have the Probook stable in Mavericks and have everything finally working except the trackpad. It's weird because it is working in some sense I have a usb mouse connected and while the lock light on the trackpad doesn't light up it will still toggle to disable clicking on the mouse. When I do a fresh install it works (very glitchy) But then when I install OSX support kexts it no longer functions.

System specs:

Hp Probook 4530s / XU015UT#ABA / F.40
i3-2310M / 4gb ram
Intel HD 3000 graphics

Make sure you are booting without the USB. Repair permissions & rebuild cache. Do EC reset.

Also, since you posted in the wrong forum (now moved), make sure you followed one of the ProBook guides.

EC Reset: Shutdown, disconnect/remove all power sources, hold power button 30 sec, reconnect power sources and restart.

Dude! that was insanely fast!

Okay so now I can't boot up but I'm gonna mess with it a bit using those instructions.


Did follow your guide, didn't know about EC reset.

Thank you very much for such a quick response!

Not being able to boot is indicative of not following the guide correctly...

Okay, so I did a fresh install. Making sure I followed every step to a tee. Same result, trackpad works at first boot but then once I install the VoodooPS2 kext it doesn't work. It is doing something though when I press printscreen the lock light lights up. Everything else works great.

No such luck bro. Does the version matter? I saw on the lion guide that the drivers will always be for just the latest version. Like is 1.8 for 10.9.3 & 10.9.4? If I just want to run 10.9.1 or 10.9.2 should I downgrade to 1.7 maybe?

Boot with -f, then provide output from these commands in Terminal:

kextstat|grep -y ps2
bdmesg|grep -y ps2

Okay so I reinstalled and skipped the step in the installer for SSDT generator and now it works. here are the results now.

That looks fine. SSDT doesn't have anything to do with PS2, but it is important for CPU power management.

bdmesg|grep -y ps2

You must have forgot to boot with the -f flag.
