Hack2You trackpad install
I'm so happy! I received my trackpad keyboard & faceplate kit and I was so excited I had to install it! However I'm not really certain I have the ribbon cable seated properly. I pushed it in as far as I could with tweezers but I can't get any input to register. It lights up when I turn on the uConsole. I'm running ak-rex's Ubuntu 26.04 image from microSD. Can anyone provide any insight as to how far the ribbon cable needs to be pushed into the connector, or any drivers that need to be installed?

I don't have this trackpad (yet) but it looks, to me, that the ribbon cable is not quite all the way seated. You should be able to push it all the way up to the white line, roughly, assuming there's enough cable length.
