I'm afraid you'll have to narrow the scope, and ideally bisect.Please keep in mind the XPS 9360 has a touchpad that can operate in I2Cor PS2 modes. It's connected to both buses and with the right initializationsequence will come up in I2C mode. Assuming Paul M. has compiled and used hid-multitouch and i2c-hid the touchpad should be operating in I2C mode. When this happens I expect that the touchpad shouldn't be responding to PS2 commands. As a debugging tactic, you may consider to unload psmouse before suspend and still see the touchpad operational.Thank you! Unloading *psmouse* with `sudo modprobe -r psmouse` indeed worked on the Dell XPS 13 9360, that means, the cursor is still functioning.
But to clarify, the TUXEDO device can be booted with `psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=1`, and the cursor still works. (I am going to send a patch.) So the EC(?) on the TUXEDO device seems to support PS2 and I2C modes, and doesn’t show the same problems as the Dell device.
Thank you for your replies. First of all, it looks like *only* the Dell system is effected as I was unable to reproduce it on the TUXEDO Book 1406. I have to verify that by finding old log files.Does this other laptop you are drawing a comparison to also have a touchpad that can operate in multiple modes? To make an accurate comparison you should determine what mode it's in.Yeah, removing the module *psmouse*, the cursor didn’t work there anymore. I was really sure, that I saw that problem once on the TUXEDO device too, but must have been mistaken, that’s why I corrected it. Sorry for the misunderstanding.So, why does *psmouse* get loaded on the Dell XPS 13 9360 since at least Linux 4.13? Or where the modules added causing the touchpad to operate in I2C mode, which causes PS2 to stop to work?Please find the full Linux kernel messages attached.
Starting the system with `psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=1`, the one second delay is still reproducible.
Kind regards, Paul
