[Bug 1594214] Re: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad inconsistently detected (Gigabyte P57W laptop)
I'm not too familiar with the verification process, but I'm running a v4.13.5 mainline kernel built from //git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack . I can vouch that: - The patch is committed as 9e81c7d1aa275cbdcd0fb511fbba7a3dfddeb8af, and that's definitely in the sources I've built from. - I no longer have the `i8042.kbdreset=1` boot parameter set. - I've had multiple reboots and power cycles, and had absolutely no problems with the trackpad at all. The reason I'm using a mainline kernel is that I've enabled various ACPI debugging options to help track down completely independent bugs and laptop features. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1594214 Title: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad inconsistently detected (Gigabyte P57W laptop) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1594214/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@haihengfeng: Thank you so much, and thank you especially for your patience with my slower reply. I'm currently running a mainline kernel with a few additional patches and configurations applied to work around issues I've encountered. I don't suppose you have a patch or a git commit that I could apply? It would be relatively straightforward for me to build a kernel with and without the patch and report back on the results of each, and that also means I can build newer kernels without the patch while it's still going through the process of getting into mainline.

[Bug 1594214] Re: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad inconsistently detected (Gigabyte P57W laptop)
@DevenPhillips: I'm a fellow bug sufferer, rather than Ubuntu maintainer, but if you're experiencing the same bug as myself then I've found I reliable workaround. Setting the `i8042.kbdreset=1` parameter to the kernel on boot seems to result in consistent detection of the touchpad. The easiest way to do that for me was to edit the /etc/default/grub file with the following line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i8042.kbdreset=1" and then running `sudo update-grub`. For me, this workaround was free of side-effects. In my situation the touchpad would either be detected (and work fine), or not be detected *at all*. I don't recall it being detected as the wrong device. As such, I've no idea if my workaround would be effective in your situation.

[Bug 1681183] [NEW] Ubuntu mainline git repo not updated for v4.10 kernels
Public bug reported: Hey lovely Ubuntu maintainers! I've been compiling my own mainline kernels for a while now due to running with a few additional hardware specific patches for my system. I've been using the mainline kernel instructions from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ . However starting with Kernel v4.10, the Ubuntu git repo doesn't seem to contain the needed branches for this to work any more. For example, trying to get v4.10.9 fails: $ git clone --branch v4.10.9 git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack Cloning into 'mainline-crack'... fatal: Remote branch v4.10.9 not found in upstream origin but cloning anything from the v4.9.x series works fine: $ git clone --branch v4.9.10 git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack Cloning into 'mainline-crack'... remote: Counting objects: ... The particular instructions for building v4.10.9 are at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10.9/ , and don't seem to be any different from any earlier releases, so I'm guessing that branches are not hitting the ubuntu mainline-crack repository at all. This may be the entirely wrong place to report this bug, in which case I would *love* your advice on where I should be fielding this.

@penalvch: I would *love* to run `apport-collect`, but doing so causes my entire system to lock-up. So does running `lspci` more than 80% of the time, which will be a tale for another bug report.

Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not, and I'm not sure of the circumstances which cause it to be detected or not. I'm on a 4.4 kernel, but trying a mainline 4.6 kernel did not help. Luckily, after trawling the internet ( http://askubuntu.com/questions/636350/elantech-touchpad-not-detected- anymore-on-ubuntu-15 ) I found that adding `i8042.kbdreset=1` to `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT` in /etc/default/grub resolves the problem.
