Hi All,

Thank you for figuring out that the issue is the elants_i2c driver binding to the touchscreen while it should be handled by the i2c-hid driver, that helps a lot.

I've written a small patch for the elants_i2c driver to stop it from binding to i2c-hid compatible touchscreens, which should fix this. I'll attach the patch here.

I would appreciate it if one of you can build a kernel with this patch (see your distro's docs), remove your workaround and then let me know if this fixes things.

If any of you are running Fedora, let me know, then I can provide a pre-built kernel with the patch added.

Regards,

Hans
