It is only the F34 firmware update functionality which is failing to load. The palm rejection and jumps are not related to this error. > Maybe that code path should be changed to not make as much noise when it runs on known unsupported hardware. Something like the attached patch? > Looking at how hid-multitouch handles palms it looks like palms should not be reported as active when calling input_mt_report_slot_state(). I'm setting the tool type to MT_TOOL_PALM when the firmware determines that a contact is a palm. But, that does not seem to be sufficient enough to have the palms filtered out. After some quick testing it looks like the change below will restore palm rejection similar to that provided by hid-multitouch. > It looks like your email client ate the tabs, but if I apply the change myself it seems to fix the palm rejection regression for me.

But, based on the data I am seeing that if I lift my finger and place it again in a short period of time the first event or so will be at the location of the previous contact. Then it will switch over to the current location. When switching over to hid-multitouch I was unable to reproduce this behavior. This definitely could be the source of the jumps. > The jumpiness definitely happens without lifting my finger, but I'm willing to test any patch you think would improve the situation. Moving one finger slowly in a figure-8 across my touchpad shows the issue clearly for me. The small variations in speed of my finger due to the friction on the trackpad get magnified to relatively large jumpy pointer movements on screen. It seems much more noticeable in diagonal movements than completely vertical or horizontal movements.
