Hi All, Now that INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD has landed in Linus' tree, upstream xorg-x11-drv-synaptics is relying on it as the one and only way to identify clickpads with top buttons (as found on all new lenovo laptops). Currently in Fedora we have a set of udev rules, which need to be expanded for each new model, instead of using INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD. Now that yet another Lenovo model has surfaced with this type of touchpad: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1096436 I would like to move Fedora to the solution upstream is using. The first step for this would be to add these 4 patches to the Fedora kernels. I've also send them to stable, and Dmitry Torokhov and Greg KH are both ok with them going into stable. But Greg has a bit of a backlog atm. For now I'll just extend the udev rules in xorg-x11-drv-synaptics for this one more model, since otherwise things will break for people not using the very latest Fedora kernel. Once these changes have been in Fedora kernels for a while I plan to rebase xorg-x11-drv-synaptics to the latest upstream, making it rely on INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD and avoiding the need to update it for each new laptop model with such a touchpad.
