I acked this, but I'm having second thoughts. The 1281 follows the same
codepaths in the driver as the 1278, why is the 1278 not used as a
fallback compatible here?
That is rare for those devices es but true in this case. Technically possible,
though it would result in a "Device mismatch" notification by the driver
since it compares the configured vs. actual device IDs. I would prefer to
avoid that, if for nothing else to avoid having to deal with concerned users.
Thanks,
