[Bug 1305522] Re: Backport Synaptics HID touchpad driver for 14.04

 

I blacklisted I2c_hid but it made no difference.  Considering leaving
Ubuntu for good,  I mean what is the point in having a laptop if you
have to carry arround an external mouse.

This smells like a push to sell more touchscreen tablets that are
useless for any serious work.
