Ok. I have reinstalled Ubuntu 9.10 using ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso downloaded from ubuntu.com. I don't have a /lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic-pae.

Thanks Ayuthia. What should be EventX in my case? I assume it would be separate for the touch and stylus sections. Code results below.

Hi Favux,

Is there a quick command line way to recover to original state after applying the kernel patch if I get the same problem? Reinstalling ubuntu takes a while and then I have to reinstall...

Hi Favux,

I tried the pre-compiled one with identical result. As soon as the patch is applied, the blank screen recycle begins and I have to reinstall OS.

Is there a set of instructions...

It seems that the applet somehow messed up some graphic settings and the machine froze after rotation. I tried rebooting using the "fix graphics problems" in the recovery menu but the...

Yes, I have disabled the automatic update. However the applet still can't see the hp-wmi.
