I managed to get it working. The problem is that the Device ID shows
it as unrecognized. When I followed the Fedora Wiki instructions it
worked. It's one of those new clickpads where the entire pad is a
button. I'll need to file a bug but don't which package it should be
against. I'll possibly start a new thread for that.
