The test kernel posted today works with it, although the
/usr/share/doc/linux-image-whatever docs give no indication of where to
find the firmware.

 4. When I login (I've only ever logged in immediately from boot), my
 mouse pointer seems to move around very rapidly and select things
 without being under my control. I'm
 not sure if this is because I play with the trackpad during startup (which I
 defintely do) and it is running the existing events really quickly -- I
 don't click with it though! -- or whether the things it does are driven
 by some other force. It's alarming but goes away in a few seconds.

The fact that GNOME thinks that epiphany is the default browser when it
isn't installed means that I can't click on links in gnome-terminal
(without manual fixing).
