Hi,
I have a Razer Blade 17 RZ09-0423 and I'm having issues getting the touchpad working. My make.conf is below
| Code: |
# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically
# built this stage.
# Please consult /usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example for a more
# detailed example.
COMMON_FLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe"
CFLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS}"
CXXFLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS}"
FCFLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS}"
FFLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS}"
# NOTE: This stage was built with the bindist Use flag enabled
# This sets the language of build output to English.
# Please keep this setting intact when reporting bugs.
LC_MESSAGES=C.utf8
MAKEOPTS="-j16 -l16"

Missing many kernel options including, but not limited to, the correct PINCTRL driver and Intel LPSS.
Best recommendation is get a Live environment booted up where the touchpad works and capture the full dmesg. This will give hints to what is totally necessary. |

Hi,
I booted the Gentoo Live DVD KDE environment and the touchpad was working. I grabbed dmesg --> http://dpaste.com/8CUJ7DNRE and lsmod --> http://dpaste.com/95LKAHJA5 from the running system.
The good news is I think I know the driver I need....
| Code: | | hid-multitouch 0018:04F3:30A6.0006: input,hidraw5: I2C HID v1.00 Mouse [ELAN0406:00 04F3:30A6] on i2c-ELAN0406:00 |
So where do I go from here?
Thank you |

This is the most important line from that dmesg: | Code: | | [ 6.952015] input: ELAN0406:00 04F3:30A6 Touchpad as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.0/i2c_designware.0/i2c-0/i2c-ELAN0406:00/0018:04F3:30A6.0006/input/input16 |
This tells us that it is an I2C touchpad on the designware host controller and uses i2c-elan as well.
So it definitely needs an Intel PINCTRL driver (pinctrl_tigerlake), Intel LPSS, Designware PCI, Elan I2C mouse (touchpad), as well as multitouch HID for multiple finger input.
This may be taken up by i2c_hid and i2c_i801 drivers as well |

So. First off. Thank you for helping out a n00b.
Second, My Touchpad is working!
here is my kernel .config file
http://dpaste.com/FEH9HRZ4Z
here is my dmesg
http://dpaste.com/23U854GUE
I hope this helps the next intrepid traveler. Will mark the thread as SOLVED! |

It should help the next traveler, provided that person arrives before your dpaste expires in 1 day.  To be most helpful, prepare a unified diff between the good and bad kernel configurations, and post that diff inline here so that it is preserved indefinitely. |

I would recommend disabling CONFIG_OF at your next convenience. It certainly does not look like the Razor has Open Firmware and there are tons of dmesg messages pointing to no support.
It certainly won't hurt anything to have it on now, but will make devices slightly faster to discover. |
