Patch from Bugzilla report.

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: utouch

- I recently bought a Dell ST2220T Monitor. On first install, The touch
- worked pretty well. But it started to behave weird after restarts. The
- behaviour is as follows:
+ Dell ST2220T Monitors have been purchased. On first install, the
+ touchscreen worked pretty well. But it started to behave weird after
+ restarts. The behaviour is as follows:
  
  On cold boot touch never works. But once going to Windows 7 and coming
  back after a warm boot, the touch works perfectly. From now, it works
  until there are no cold boots. Once cold boot happens into Ubuntu, touch
  stops working. This behaviour has been consistent. I tried to put
  usbhid.quirks with <vendorid> : <productid>: 0x40 as  mentioned here
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10287057#post10287057 but it
  did not work.
  
- I am using Ubuntu Natty
+ This is on Ubuntu Natty.
+ 
+ A patch from Red Hat bugzilla:
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=703118   seems to help the
+ issue significantly, but, a few touch features (such as "click") seem to
+ still need some work.  The patch doesn't seem to be upstream yet in the
+ mainline kernel.
+ 
+ 
+ 
+ SRU Request:
+ 
+ Impact:
+ 
+ Customer currently has 150 of these monitors with plans to expand to 1,500 
next year and 10,000 in the year after that. Getting these devices to
+ work with ubuntu will help out a lot with cost reduction for the customer.
+ 
+ Patch:
+ 
+ See bugzilla reference above.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 
+ 1) Install 11.04 (In this case the system was dual-booted with Windows 7)
+ 2) Without the patch, the touchscreen only seems to work if the machine is 
warm-rebooted from Windows. The touch features don't work at all if the system 
is cold-booted into Ubuntu.
+ 3) With the patch, the touchscreen appears to work with cold boots and warm 
reboots, but, 'click' features on the touchscreen still need to be applied.
+ 
+ TEST CASE:
+ 
+ Apply the patch to the kernel, then test the touchscreen after warm
+ reboots and cold boots to ensure that the touchscreen is fully
+ functional.  Customer has agreed to assist with testing, etc.
+ 
+ Regression Potential:
+ 
+ Unknown at this time.  Patch appears to be pretty trivial and isolated
+ so regression potential seems to be pretty low.
