Title: Dell XPS 12 2013 Haswell synaptics trackpad not recognized anymore in Ubuntu kernel 3.10 and 3.11 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: First I installed stock Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail with kernel 3.8. Trackpad was functioning correctly (e.g. two-finger scrolling worked) and was recognized as Synaptics device in /proc/bus/input/devices. Due to very new Intel wireless 7260 hardware that did not work in kernel 3.8, I dist-upgraded to 13.10 Saucy Salamander with kernel 3.11. With this kernel my Synaptics trackpad is no longer recognized as Synaptics and works as default evdev pointer (mouse) device, without all the trackpad features. This bug report was done with kernel 3.11rc7, but applies also to kernel 3.10 and the latest saucy kernel 3.11 to which I'm upgraded by software updater. Instead of Synaptics, devices lists it as below: I: Bus=0018 Vendor=06cb Product=2734 Version=0100 N: Name="DLL05E3:01 06CB:2734" P: Phys= S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/INT33C3:00/i2c-8/8-002c/input/input11 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse0 event11 B: PROP=0 B: EV=17 B: KEY=30000 0 0 0 0 B: REL=3 B: MSC=10 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.7.1-0ubuntu1 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-031100rc7-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.12.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Sep 2 11:52:16 2013 DistUpgraded: 2013-09-01 22:21:35,082 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: saucy DistroVariant: ubuntu EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-08-09 (23 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) MachineType: Dell Inc.
