Bug Description
== SRU Justification ==
Seems there is a new version of the ELANPAD touchpad with identifier
ELAN0612 that is being included in newer laptops. The kernel itself
doesn't have support for this touchpad yet. However, the patch to get
this working is trivial. Since people start being affected by this,
this patch is being sent as a SAUCE patch until it lands upstream.
The upstream bug at the Kernel project, including the patch is here:
https:/
== Fix ==
UBUNTU: SAUCE: Input: elan_i2c - add ELAN0612 to the ACPI table
== Regression Potential ==
Low. One liner to add a device id.
== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
