Dear Christopher, thanks for the tip. However, I tried to understand it with Ubuntu Debian mainline kernels etc. It is beyond my skill and possibilities. I searched in Google for examples, guidelines etc. Those I found were not leading me to the goal or they are on a skill level, that I do not have. I am sorry, I am an end user and not a developer. I don't even full understand the terminology . In my point of view, bisection from that point on where one has to use git and make builds etc leaves "user land". So, how could we proceed? I would be happy to test kernel builds up and downwards as I did it in the past. However, someone is needed who has the skills to build the kernels, who could do that? Besides this way, would it be possible to search in the commits for changes which affect directly the Elantech touchpad and build a kernel with and without these commits?
