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

 

On my Dell XPS 13 with Haswell chipset, I tried the kernel from #44.
Touchscreen and touchpad are working fully!

xinput gives:

$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
