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

 

Hello,

I am very pleased to announce that about 2 weeks ago after a kernel-
firmware update my Synaptics touch pad is now fully fonctionnal when
before that it was not working at all.

* Ultrabook HP Spectre 13-h201ef x2 *
- Release: Ubuntu 14.04.1 (trusty) 64-b
- Kernel: 3.13.0-32-generic (eg. the current one)
- FIX: linux-firmware 1.127.7 (but the fix happened with an earlier version, really don't know which one)
- Touch Pad SYNAPTICS v.103u9
- GPointing is also now fully working

Thanks to everybody who have worked on this issue and have found the right fix.
Joe
