I updated to Trusty yesterday. The provided 3.13.0-22 kernel has the
same issue as we had in Saucy. The touchpad doesn't support 2 finger
scrolling, etc. I downloaded the Trusty kernel source and tried to
reapply the rmi4 patch as I had done in Saucy. The resulting kernel
worked in the sense that both touchscreen and touchpad worked properly
including 2 finger scrolling, but I am unable to get my XPS12 to sleep
properly with my kernel. Now it wakes back up immediately. I tried the
acelan kernel but it does not support 2 finger scrolling.

Would like to get back to a point where my touchpad works properly and
still goes to sleep with Trusty.
