Check in /proc/bus/input/devices to see if you can see your touchpad listed.
Directory is empty -- but also empty on similar system with working touchpad
What do you mean it's empty? It's a "file", not a directory. And it has to be there.
My bad. The file is empty.
You think it is empty because
[egreshko@meimei ~]$ ll /proc/bus/input/devices -r--r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jul 29 07:45 /proc/bus/input/devices
But it isn't a file in the traditional sense.
Do....
cat /proc/bus/input/devices
Ah! Verrry interesting.
No entry for TouchPad. Poor thing has died. So sad.
Thanks to you and Samuel for the help.
