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

 

Hello,

I confirm Joe's findings. I own an HP Pavilion 11 x2 . Before I upgraded
to Ubuntu 14.04 Snapshot 1 my clickpad was recognized as evDev based
mouse device. But after an kernel update last week or so my clickpad
stoped working completly. My ELAN Touchscreen is still recognized as
evDev based device and is still working with mono-touch like before.

Thanks,
Marfi
