psmouse dkms build doesn't work for lowlatency kernel

Hi,
I have to build a dkms module for my recent alps touchpad, not recognized by default. Il works on Ubuntu, on KX with generic kernel, but not with lowlatency: this means touchpad is still not recognized.
Here is the module and the way to install from git:
https://github.com/he1per/psmouse-dkms-alpsv7
any way to get this work? touchpad is detected as generic mouse, no scroll, no advanced settings for tap etc...
thank's!

Kernel modules need to be re-installed after installing a different kernel.
Did you re-install the module after installing the lowlatency kernel?

lowlatency was the kernel by default. I installed psmouse on it, then I installed generic to check, and it worked without reinstalling module...
I'll try Liquorix, seems interesting. RT isn't in kx 14.04 repositories anymore? on my last laptop (which died), it was the only kernel working good (nvidia or other irq problems, freezes etc...)

This is my system, it's old but the liquorix kernel I'm using did the trick for latency issues.
Below is a link for installing it, the install works for most Debian based systems.
