This means that the patch will enter Karmic after its release (as you mentioned an SRU rather than a FFE), right? Regards,
Input: synaptics - add another Protege M300 to rate blacklist From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> Apparently some of Toshiba Protege M300 identify themselves as "Portable PC" in DMI so we need to add that to the DMI table as well. We need DMI data so we can automatically lower Synaptics reporting rate from 80 to 40 pps to avoid over-taxing their keyboard controllers.
