VoodooRMI.kext and VoodooSMBus.kext should not be included in the EFI? May cause conflicts with VoodooPS2Controller.kext #170

Please correct me if I'm wrong but both VoodooRMI.kext and VoodooSMBus.kext are not meant to work with the T480. VoodooPS2Controller should cover everything regarding trackpad, keyboard trackpoint and buttons etc. My trackpad was not working at all and with the help of ChatGPT I deleted VoodooRMI.kext and VoodooSMBus.kext from kext folder and config.plist. On my own I decided to add VoodooPS2Trackpad.kext to config.plist (a plugin included with VoodooPS2Controller.kext) and now everything is working perfectly. Just leaving this here if anyone else is having trackpad issues. Again if I'm wrong please explain why VoodooRMI.kext and VoodooSMBus.kext are included next to VoodooPS2Controller.kext with the T480.

VoodooRMI.kext and VoodooSMBus "are required" on T480 because of synaptics touchpad (yes, it can works without it, but gestures will not working + cursor jump), and it need to works alongside VoodooPS2Controller

Once I got rid of those my trackpad was enabled. With them installed trackpad was not working at all. Chat GPT said Voodoo RMI was for a different type of trackpad. Also someone on Reddit commented that once they removed them their gestures and all trackpad functions started working.🤷‍♂️
