The XO-1 comes equipped with a capactive-sensitive, "Glide Sensor" trackpad.

Basic information about how the touchpad is intended to be used can be found in the Human Interface Guidelines.

Hardware Specification

The hardware is manufactured by ALPS Electric. The specification (File:KGDMFA001-non-confidential.pdf) may require Acrobat reader with Japanese font package also installed for successful viewing and printing). See http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2007-August/006080.html for missing details.


PenTablet Software Support

No PenTablet support is planned at this time, and support is disabled in present kernels. However, it is possible to use the resistive touchpad from userspace.
