[PATCH] Add a quirk for the Dell XPS 13 (2015) when in PS/2 mode.

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

 



When the touchpad for the Dell XPS 13 is running in PS/2 mode the
EC has a tendency to glitch causing the driver to receive bad data.
This doesn't affect the usage of the touchpad until enough bad data
is received that causes the driver to reset and "freeze".
