For those with the XPS 13's that still have a PS/2 interface showing up, it looks as if that doesn't seem to 'break' anything. The model I have in the lab has a much older touchpad firmware on it than the ones you guys have, so, that may be why things are showing up on your systems like they are.
@Jens, I would probably wait for an official fix rather than try and build and install your own kernel, especially if you haven't done it before. I would, however, give the test kernels a try here: http://people.canonical.com/~acelan/bugs/lp1305522/20140523/ The XPS12 has the same i2c touchpad as the XPS13, but, I'm not positive about whether the touchscreens are the same though. I may have an XPS12 in the lab that I can try this on, provided it will power up :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305522 Title: Backport Synaptics HID touchpad driver for 14.04 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “linux” source package in Trusty: In Progress Bug description: Synaptics just upstreamed a new set of HID touchpad driver: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git/commit/?h=for-3.16/rmi4&id=9fb6bf02e3ad04c20edb8e46536ce3eeda32c736 It's better we can have it in 14.04 .
