[Bug 1540511] Re: Touchpad not working (4.3 -> 4.4 regression)

 

Tested kernels so far:

4.3.0-7 ubuntu - good (touchpad working)
4.5.0-040500rc3 - good (touchpad working)
4.4.0-4 ubuntu - bad (touchpad not working)
4.4.1-040401 - bad (touchpad not working)
4.5.0-040500rc1 - good (touchpad working)

Looks like a temporary regression in 4.4 - maybe we can bisect between
4.4 and 4.5rc1 to see if it's something we can backport?

Title:
  Touchpad not working (4.3 -> 4.4 regression)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When booting the latest xenial kernel (4.4.0-2.16), my touchpad is not
  working. When booting 4.3 kernels, the touchpad is works.

  Expected: When I move a finger touching the touchpad, an arrow should move accordingly on the screen.
  What happens instead: nothing.

  I've tried an upstream 4.4 kernel; problem is present there as well.

  I've booted with pci=noaer due to another bug that would otherwise
  spam dmesg. Removing it does not fix the problem.
