Hello all --

I'm running RH9 with kernel 2.5.72 on a Sony Vaio PCG-GRX600 (laptop).

I can't get my touchpad to work, but it has worked on this machine under
RH8. 

Looking at whats under devices (see below) I can clearly see that the
Touchpad is detected (properly?) by the kernel. The one thing that is
missing is a Handle. Can someone explain to me what is a Handle, and how
do I get a handle associated with this touchpad? Is handle just a
user-space driver for this device? 

Below is the output from cat and the revlevant messages from dmesg. 

Thanks a lot!
