Hi, Seth:
I just sent this patch to stable kernel. And got reply from maintainer.
Should we skip apply this patch for ubuntu kernel?
Because there is a user report a issue on stable kernel.
The reply email quoted:
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
Input: trackpoint - assume 3 buttons when buttons detection fails
to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is:
input-trackpoint-assume-3-buttons-when-buttons-detection-fails.patch
and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory.
Sorry for inconvenience,
Aaron
