Hello Linux kernel input team, On the 2020 Clevo "NL4x_NL5xLU" computer, the touchpad is not detected correctly by default. I mean I could use touchpad single gestures but not multi-touch gestures. Adding "pci=nocrs" boot parameter solves the problem, details below. This issue has been reported few months ago by another users on Ubuntu Launchpad, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1904052 I tried on Debian Sid with kernel 5.8, 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11.0-rc4 (compiled two days ago) and the result is still the same. When looking at "/proc/bus/input/devices" I don't see my touchpad but I only see:
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0005 Version=0063 N: Name="ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse" P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse2 event6 B: PROP=1 B: EV=7 B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0 B: REL=103
After adding the boot parameter "pci=nocrs" via grub I see in addition two new devices:
I: Bus=0018 Vendor=2808 Product=0101 Version=0100 N: Name="FTCS1000:01 2808:0101 Mouse" P: Phys=i2c-FTCS1000:01 S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.0/i2c_designware.0/i2c-1/i2c-FTCS1000:01/0018:2808:0101.0001/input/input17 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse0 event7 B: PROP=0 B: EV=17 B: KEY=30000 0 0 0 0 B: REL=903 B: MSC=10 I: Bus=0018 Vendor=2808 Product=0101 Version=0100 N: Name="FTCS1000:01 2808:0101 Touchpad" P: Phys=i2c-FTCS1000:01 S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.0/i2c_designware.0/i2c-1/i2c-FTCS1000:01/0018:2808:0101.0001/input/input18 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse1 event8 B: PROP=5 B: EV=1b B: KEY=e520 10000 0 0 0 0 B: ABS=2e0800000000003 B: MSC=20
In "The kernel's command-line parameters", it is requested to report a bug if "pci=nocrs" is needed, here it is. What can I do to help you making this touchpad working by default with the Linux kernel? (I don't know a lot about hardware and Linux kernel related stuff) Thanks in advance.
