[Bug 1218973] Re: [Dell XPS 12-9Q33] Touchpad not recognized

 

For simplification, you could use the kernel I compiled with the above
patches from here:

https://www.fs.tum.de/~edelmann/synaptics-rmi

Now my touchpad is recognized as full synaptics touchpad, and the
touchscreen still works.

An additional, minor change: When the XPS12 screen is flipped, the
touchpad is now not disabled, as was the case earlier. The keyboard is
disabled as before.

I haven't noticed any side effects while working with this kernel in the
past few weeks.

It would be great if these patches work their way into Trusty.
