Chris,

I followed instructions in email below, installed latest upstream kernel 
packages:


linux-headers-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb 
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-headers-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb> 


linux-headers-3.17.0-031700_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_all.deb 
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-headers-3.17.0-031700_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_all.deb>
linux-image-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb 
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-image-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb>

Package installation was successful, unfortunately during rebooting I 
received a kernel panic, "no init parameters".  Unfortunately, I am not 
able to proceed further, any guidance is appreciate.

Thanks,

Phil

It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested.

Title:
  [Dell Inspiron 5547] - touchpad locks on select and unable to unlock

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a new Dell Inspiron 5547, I am dual booting with ubuntu 14.04.1
  and win 8.1.  When running on ubuntu, I am using touchpad exclusively,
  and sometimes the touchpad gets locked into selection and I am unable
  to unlock.  I have tried hitting ESC, tabbing to another window, but
  unable to unlock.  I have other symptons (cursor jumps to other lines
  of text when typing, cusor jumps to last icon on launch pad), but I
  think those are all related.

  I have tried disabling touchpad when typing but to no avail.  It also
  sometimes seems that this sympthon sometimes survies a reboot.
