Erik you'd be surpised to know that many people don't use vanilla kernels or don't have special knowledge on linux. It's OK to give details and github patches but it gives the false impression to people who just search their problem, that their touchpad won't work out of the box.
Ubuntu is not "my distro" is one of the top distros and many projects use it as a proposed base to build like AOSP , Chrome browser etc. It wasn't hostility against you so your defensive stance is unreasonable. To the battery draining part, I get almost 5 hours with Windows 10 testing and many people commented that this the ultimate goal :) Because you asked about my drain I got 2h40m max watching youtube and IRC talking as I remember. A fix is prepared so it means THERE IS a problem.

The default kernel of Ubuntu(18.04) hangs at loading with message: tsc: Refined TSC clocksource calibration: 1996.250 MHz clocksource: tsc: mask: 0xffffffffffffffff max_cycles: (...), max_idle_ns: (...) Soft lockup Using pci=noacpi kernel parameter kernel loads without any problem but my notebook produces more heat than on Win10. If I know right Acer notebooks need ACPI to the correct power management. The same thing happens on mainline 4.17,4.18rc1-2. BIOS upgrade to the latest version: 1.08 hasn't helped This problem has been reported upstream: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200087 The latest correctly working kernel was 4.13.* but the heat problem was present with this too.
