The synaptics driver itself was not changed for many month, it is the surrounding code that was changed and somehow it interferes with your box. > Right now the > onscreen pointer is practically unusuable when I so much as open a konqueror > window.

Also, is there programs that poll status of your battery or monitor box's temperature? How often do they do the polling? Have you updated any of them recently? Oh, another one... try booting with "ec_intr=0" on the kernel command line to disable embedded controller interrupt mode. And finally, can I mples get a dmesg (or /var/log/messages) of boot with "i8042.debug=1 log_buf_len=131072" please? -- Dmitry - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
