[PATCH v3 0/4] Fixes for ALPS driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch series tries to fix problems with ALPS dualpoint devices on Dell
Latitude laptops which are probably caused by bugs in Dell BIOS, Dell EC or
in ALPS touchpad firmware itself.

Root of problems is yet unknown but at least this patch series could eliminate
reporting bogus data to userspace.
