Re: [PATCH] input: Thinkpad R31 i8042 nomux quirk

From: legolas558 <hidden>

Hi Colin,

I have removed 'i8042.nomux=1' from my kernel command line (kernel 
2.6.25-gentoo-r8) and the mouse glitches bug has not yet happened (last 
time I had 2.6.22 or so).

I assume it has been fixed in previous releases, and got unnoticed. I 
will reply again to this message if there is again necessity to use 
i8042.nomux=1.

Thanks for your help, and sorry for the noise.

Best regards,

I also have a notebook, Maxdata Pro 7000X (Fujitsu clone), which has
such problem (needs i8042.nomux=1, perhaps kernel bug #8740).

Can we also use a patch for it?
    
Can you test the patch below and see if it fixes the problem?
