Dear Alistair, Many thanks for having me onboard!
With regards to the touchpad model I can confirm that I have the same. I got the same spam in my dmesg [timestamp] i2c_hid i2c-ELAN1200:00: i2c_hid_get_input: incomplete report (16/65535) and that's how I came here in the first place. This was what gave me the idea to unload and load the module. Yes I can reload the module at runtime but I might know the reason for the black-screen that many experience. Is it possible that there is something going on with the Nvidia driver? Our difference is the card model (mine is the GTX1060 and yours is the GTX1050 if I'm correct) although I think there must be the driver in general (see below...although a bit off topic). At first, and before I realised the touchpad issue, I had black screens and errors by even trying to launch the Gnome tweak tool. I installed the Nvidia drivers from the "additional drivers" tab but realised that the process did not blacklist the nouveau driver (nothing relevant in my modprobe.d folder). I've managed to solve the problem by manually blacklisting the nouveau drivers by creating a blacklist-nouveau.conf file in modprobe.d including the following blacklist nouveau blacklist lbm-nouveau options nouveau modeset=0 alias nouveau off alias lbm-nouveau off ...I've seen this solution somewhere but don't have the link sorry... If you haven't done already try it...it might work. Again many thanks and sorry for the slight off topic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778087 Title: ELAN1200 touchpad jumps around and disconnects To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1778087/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
