Just like the K12A the Dell K15A keyboard-dock has problems with get_feature requests. This sometimes leads to several "failed to fetch feature 8" messages getting logged, after which the touchpad may or may not work. Just like the K15A these errors are triggered by undocking and docking the tablet. There also seem to be other problems when undocking and then docking again in quick succession. It seems that in this case the keyboard-controller still retains some power from capacitors and does not go through a power-on-reset leaving it in a confuses state, symptoms of this are: 1. The USB-ids changing to 048d:8910 2. Failure to read the HID descriptors on the second (mouse) USB intf. 3. The touchpad freezing after a while These problems can all be cleared by undocking the keyboard and waiting a full minute before redocking it. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
