OK Hans.

Could you please tell me what kernel version will this patch be included in?

That is hard to predict, I would expect it to make 4.3 for certain,
hopefully also 4.2 and a 4.1.x bugfix release.

Regards,

Hans

It worked like a charm!!

Ubuntu support team helped me to build the patched kernel. Now I can use all advanced touchpad features.

Thank you very much to Hans and Benjamin!!

Thanks for testing the patch, now that it has been tested I've
submitted it for inclusion into the upstream kernel.

Hans

Hi Hans

Sorry for the delay.

I'm afraid I haven't built a kernel before, so I need some help.

I've found this link I think describes what I have to do
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/applying-patches.txt
I suppose it's right.

I've installed kernel 4.0.0-040000rc6.201503291935. So I suppose I have to
download sources for this kernel.

Once downloaded, I have to change to the kernel source dir and run:
$ patch -p1 < ../0001-elantech-Fix-detection-of-touchpads-where-the-revisi.patch

Is all that right?

Yes that is correct.

If yes, should I compile this patched kernel? How can I do it?

Usually your distro will have a wikipage with instructions on how to build
your own kernel, and it is best to follow your distros instructions.

If you're using Fedora I can build a test kernel for you to install.

Regards,

Hans



Thanks in advance.

Ok, so the "ETD0108" here means that you have an elantech ps/2 touchpad.
Great! You got it.

This also stands out in the log:

> [    0.958323] i8042: [49] MUX error, status is 75, data is fe

So the first thing to try is to boot with i8042.nomux=1 on the kernel
commandline.
I have done it. The touchpad issue hasn't been solved. Do you want me to send
dmesg output?

I've taken another look at the traces you've posted before and I think that
I've found the problem. Can you build a kernel with the attached patch
and let us know if that fixes things ?

Regards,

Hans
