Proposed fix on the kernel list: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/7/722 It seems that also the touchpad of the XPS13 9333 is affected. Is there a simple way to get the exact range? I could only notice the discrepancy using evtest. The XPS 13 9333 uses a different touchpad which can be switched to its correct mode. The patch is proposed for kernel v3.16, and Fedora ships a backport of it in its current kernel (F20). So yes, for the XPS13 Haswell, we can have a better way of retrieving the information. closing this bug now, we've fixed the various min/max ranges in the kernels, and most have made their way into stable releases by now as well. |

Created attachment 94467 [details] illustration of announced ranges vs actual ranges This is a kernel bug but in case we can't fix it there we'll need to add a hack to the driver. The coordinate ranges announced for the touchpad on the T440, T540, x240 is off (PNPID LEN0034). Attached picture shows the discrepancy. Red: range as announced by the kernel Yellow: range inside self-configured edges Blue: actual range reported by the device
