I popped it in and found no such device. I then updated to Windows 10 (albeit still booting with the legacy BIOS, not EFI) and found that once again there is no such device shown in device manager. >> Also, is there a way to simply allow the driver subsystem to allow >> probing to proceed despite this resource conflict so that I can resume >> debugging my original input device issue? > > Try to pass "acpi_enforce_resources=3Dlax" in the kernel command line. Thanks, indeed this allows the driver to load. Unfortunately it didn't take long to encounter further issues. The motivation for all of this is to get the touchpad into I2C mode, since currently it is merely exposed as a simple PS/2 device. Unfortunately it seems that even Windows 10 doesn't use the touchpad's I2C mode (although I suppose it's possible that this is guarded on UEFI boot; moreover Windows appears to have proper support for configurating this touchpad in PS/2 mode, which is unfortunately an ALPS devices). Looking at the DSDT it seems that enabling the I2C interface may require the help of the embedded controller, the state of which is exposed in the DSDT through a mysteriously-named SDS1 field. It looks like this field could take on a number of values which identify a variety of different touchpads. Given that it looks like GPIO pin states may be determined by the value of this field I'm a bit reluctant to go fiddling around with it.=20 I do wish that firmware weren't such a nightmare.
