Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think that a BIOS update will change anything, since this problem appears to be related to a new firmware version not yet supported by the driver.
craftguy, could you please report if your patch solved the problem? does the touchpad work as expected with hw_version = 4? In that case we can forward the patch to the subsystem maintainers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232877 Title: Touchpad reported as: "elantech: unknown hardware version, aborting" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1232877/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
