All the patch does in a boiled down fashion is if it detects a FocalTech touchpad it sets it to use the generic ps2 mouse emulations mode. It then resets the the i8024 as it has a problem with the probing.
What this means is that all you get is just a generic touchpad with left and right click no scrolling on the side of the pad or anything special. It is like setting psmouse.proto=bare if the patch was not there it would just read a PS/2 Generic Mouse in detection. Looking at what Hans is talking about in the other bug report this is a proprietary touchpad and we either need the company to release some code or there will have to be a reverse engineering which could take awhile. I am contemplating returning this laptop as it is under the 30 days for me between then and the fact that yellow looks like mustard lol. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1372609 Title: Touchpad detected as mouse on Asus ux303ln laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1372609/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
