Please help verification TOUCHSCREEN_ELAN kernel config change #585

Open vicamo opened 3 years ago

In Ubuntu kernel bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1881319 we're having trouble with ELAN touchpads due to elants_i2c being marked built-in in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1630238, referenced in https://github.com/GalliumOS/galliumos-distro/issues/270. I created a PPA in https://launchpad.net/~vicamo/+archive/ubuntu/ppa-1881319 that mark it back to m while preserving PINCTRL_CHERRYVIEW as y. So I'm crossing post this message to those had been affected to find some help from you for verification of this proposed change. Thank you.

Is it possible to use libinput and its quirks to change what the device is detected as so that you can use the newer built-in kernel module and don't have to maintain a separate config?
