Re: [PATCH 0/2] Better support old elantech v2 hardware

I just got an Asus U46E-BAL5 and the touchpad is showing up in
openSUSE Linux 11.4 as a PS/2 mouse. I think this patch set might fix
that issue - how can I get the patches to try it?

Hi everyone,

Thanks to Richard Schütz's bug report, I did some more research on elantech
v2 hardware. I asked our Windows driver team and firmware team about the
_ancient histroy_ of the dark old days ;-) These two patches are the results.

Hopefully with these 2 we can support v2 hardware as good as Windows does.

I just want to say: Thank you so much for all this! The Linux community
is often ignored by vendors, and then if we aren't ignored they only put
the effort into making the latest stuff work. Personally, I greatly
appreciate what you have contributed.

Thanks again!

Thank you, Chase, it's nice to hear this from you.

I've been a long time Linux user, so I do understand the frustration
when having a device working OK on Windows, but just can't get Linux to
support it ;)

I am happy to have a chance to contribute, even just a little bit.
