Acer Aspire A315-41 Weird issues with touchpad in Linux
Hi everyone!
I have noticed, that touchpad doesn't work sometimes under Linux.
I have tried switching it to "Basic" mode in BIOS (PS/2 mode I believe), and system won't boot (would hang).
In "Advanced" mode (I2C) it works fine, but sometimes (especially after hybrid sleep) touch pad will not work, and would require either a reboot, or running these commands as root:
sudo modprobe -r i2c_hid
sudo modprobe i2c_hid
I believe this issue is hardware related, because on newer version of BIOS (v1.15) it became so much worse. In older BIOS (v1.09) it works relatively stable.
What can I do about it? Am I the only one who has such weird issues?
Sometimes I get error messages mentioning I2C something-something...
