Looking at HP site it seems that at least some batches of this laptop are shipping with Elan touchpads. KT, do we need to expand the list in elantech_set_properties() to include more IC types? [KT]:I have checked our touchpad IC list, we should add "case 11" and "case 12" in the version switch case . and their hw_versoin is 4.
