[Bug 123775] Re: Elantech touchpad is incorrectly recogonised as a "ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse"

[linuxonbute]

looks like there are further problems. With the patched kernel. although tapping is disabled, I am finding 
an intermittent ( but each day I use the laptop ) problem.

What happens is this:

If the pointer is at the bottom of the screen and I want it at the top I have to run my finger from the bottom
to the top of the touchpad twice to get it there. 
Normally this works but when the fault appears then, after I have lifted my finger up on the first pass 
and then touch the pad again the pointer jumps back to the bottom of the screen.
This happens 10 to 20 times before the situation returns to normal.
This can happen several times during a session.

A further problem which also happens with the standard 8.10 kernel is that the settings for my wireless card 
are lost on each boot up. I have to reconfigure it and then reboot each time.
I cannot see why the settings are lost after a shutdown but not after a warm boot.

At this rate i expect I will go back to 8.04 but I will wait a few days
to see if any improvements are available.
