I'm having issues with the 'AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint' (HP zBook Studio G4). It is working but is treated as a mouse device, effectively resulting in all the settings I make in 'Mouse and Touchpad' > 'Touchpad' being ignored. E.g. I can disable 'Tap to click' but with no effect. I can even disable 'Enable touchpad' and it will still work.
These are the relevant lines from the Xorg log file:

Any hints on how to get this thing working as an actual touchpad would be much appreciated!
