openfly | Hey all are there any immediate plans to re-add raw1394 and ohci1394 support to the 11.04 kernel? | 01:52 |
---|---|---|
eruditehermit | hey, is there a ppa with kernel 3.0.0 rc4 for natty? | 08:56 |
eruditehermit | or a ppa with mainline builds for natty | 08:57 |
htorque | hello everyone! i got a question about bug 760142: if there was a fix, would it be backported to natty? | 14:36 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 760142 in linux "Several Ubuntu-certified Dell laptops: ImPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint configure as PS/2 mouse instead of proper touchpad" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/760142 | 14:36 |
apw | htorque, it always depends on how intrusive the fix is, how specific to the h/w it fixes, and how likely it is deemed to regress other non-matching h/w | 14:38 |
apw | if it 2k l | 14:38 |
apw | if it 2k lines of change its going to be a no | 14:38 |
apw | htorque, last i heard there still wasn't a proper fix cause alps were refusing to tell people how it worked | 14:39 |
htorque | apw: ok, thanks for the comment :-) | 14:44 |
apw | htorque, do you have an actual fix ? | 14:44 |
htorque | apw: oh no, i just asked here to help answering a question at askubuntu.com | 14:45 |
htorque | apw: but it seems quite unlucky that this is happening with ubuntu certified hardware :( | 14:45 |
apw | htorque, its certified with a working touchpad, just not very well | 14:45 |
apw | htorque, we are really not in control over the h/w vendors who keep stuff secret | 14:46 |
apw | htorque, they are mad imo | 14:46 |
htorque | apw: i know and i agree :-) | 14:46 |
