[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1629613] Re: [Dell XPS 13] SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad not recognized after upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04

2017-03-07 Thread Alessandro Volpi
After a an apt-get update the touchpad has totally quit working, also
with the previously known working kernel 4.4.0-62-generic.

It is not an hardware issue, since the touchpad works perfectly with
trusty and kernel 3.13 ...

2017-02-23 Thread Alessandro Volpi
It was not able to find which type of touchpad hardware is installed on
XPS13 DE - 9333. Dell support says that the device is no more covered by
the warranty. Does someone know whether the device is a genuine
Synaptics touchpad or is a "compatible" OEM produc ?

Thanks.

I have upgraded the kernel to 4.4.0-64-generic . The touchpad is still
not recognized. This seems to be a "permanent regression" from the last
working kernel version 4.4.0-62-generic.

2017-02-22 Thread Alessandro Volpi
I have now a fresh xenial system on my Dell XPS 13 DE 9333.

The touchpad has been working flawlessly until I upgraded from kernel
4.4.0-62-generic to 4.4.0-63-generic.

With the new kernel the touchpad is not detected at startup. With the
last working kernel the output"xinput list" command was including the
touchpad, albeit with a name ( DLL060A:00 06CB:2734 ) different than the
self explaining name of "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" which was standard
with Ubuntu trusty ( 3.13.0-108-generic ).

With kernel 4.4.0-63-generic the touchpad is not detected at all.

My conclusion is that my original assumption that the flaw in the
touchpad detection was somehow related to the upgrade from trusty to
xenial IS INDEED WRONG. The bug is apparently also affecting the clean
xenial installation.

The attached files contain the output of "xinput list" command,
depending on the active kernel.

The touchpad is working great with 3.13 ( trusty ) and xenial ( kernel 4.4.0-62 
and older )
andis not detected with kernel 4.4.0-63 )

This is valid on my Dell XPS13 DE 9333. I will try to install xenial on a Dell 
XPS 13 DE 9350.
On this newer computer the touchpad works well with Ubuntu trusty ( also with 
xenial kernels ).

I have not tried to update the BIOS, since the computer is now working
quite well, albeit not with the latest kernel and my past experience
with BIOS updates makes me very cautious ...

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1629613] Re: [Dell XPS 13] SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad not recognized after upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04

2016-10-11 Thread Alessandro Volpi
I am affected by the bug without having upgraded from trusty to xenial.
I simply upgraded from kernel 3.13 to kernel 4.4 maintaining the Trusty
release.

After the kernel upgrade the touchpad of my Dell XPS 13 ( version 9333 -
2014 ) is no more recognized as a valid input source for the xserver.

It is useful to point out that I also own a newer Dell XPS 13 ( version
9350 -2016 ); the machine came with a more recent trusty version (
Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS ). After upgrading from kernel 3.19 to kernel 4.4 the
touchpad is still working without a glitch.

I guess that something has gone wrong when upgrading the kernel in the
older machine.

I tried to install package xserver-xorg-input-synaptics with the
following result:

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 xserver-xorg-input-synaptics : Depends: xorg-input-abi-20
Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.14.99.902)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

It is likely that the actual origin of the bug lies in the above
mentioned broken packages ...
