Karmic 9.10 x64 (2.6.31-17-generic) - Asus K7I0C is also effected by this. Touchpad "works", but is identified wrong, thus i dont get any touchpad special options, such as "delay while type" which is HUGELY useful. The Asus EEEpc works, which uses the same hardware, but obviously a device ID change, so its not detecting properly ?
Thanks in advance.
