Hi all! I have a new-to-me (i.e., used) laptop and am having a problem making the touchpad behave. It is an old HP Elitebook 8530p, and I THINK it has a synaptics touchpad. But I don't remember how to get more specifics than that on Linux, lspci, lsusb and lshw don't tell me anything helpful. lsmod doesn't list anything containing "syn" or "synaptics". Anyway,

Konrad, et al, I am seeing visual corruption (almost like an interlacing problem) with i915 under Xen on some platforms using linux-3.8. See attached file for an example of the visual corruption. This particular platform is an HP Elitebook 2540p The same kernel and ramdisk, when booted as native linux does not show this corruption. dmesg is attached, as well (out.txt) - but I did not see

This may not be the proper place to raise this question but I've had little luck elsewhere. After trying again, unsuccessfully this time, to install the proprietary NVIDIA driver, I've decided to focus my efforts on the open source Nouveau driver. I've seen video drivers blamed for varying degrees of "freeze on resume" but I'm not certain that's what I'm up
