MacBook Pro 2015 Trackpad Driver Missing/Broken

[sirredbeard]

Issue:

Clear Linux lacks a driver for the MacBook Pro 2015 Trackpad.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install Clear Linux with desktop-autostart checked on a MacBook Pro 2015.
2. Restart.
3. Login.
4. Check if Trackpad works.

Expected Results:

Trackpad works. Pretty sure it's just a synaptics driver.

Actual Results:

No response from Trackpad.

one of the interesting things to maybe collect is "lsacpi" output (but google is pretty firm on the BCM5974 thing) On Fri, Feb 16, 2018 at 7:48 PM, Arjan van de Ven <arjanvandeven@gmail.com> wrote:

Thank you. That appears correct. I did Google the issue but went down several inconclusive rabbit holes, my Google-fu must not be working.
