Sorry for the delay. I'm testing with 3.18-rc1 and will report back shortly. Given the amount of time that elapsed, I also see that 3.18-rc2 is out. I don't want to conflate issues, but, I did try to load rc2 as well and can't do any testing, as I'm unable to boot the kernel. It seems that

Problem still exists in 3.18-rc1. Seems to be more agressive - I got a bunch of the sync error messages immediately after turning on the driver; they would have kept going if I didn't re-disable it (psmouse proto=exps): [ 56.283673] input: DualPoint Stick as

Sorry, didn't intend to conflate multiple issues. Duplicate bug report here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382702 I kind of agree this seems kind of silly. Also, as this is a kernel driver bug, isn't this highly dependent on the version of the kernel you're running? I'm
