I've been using the firmware update from jackhumbert, and it vastly improves my touchpad experience, but it doesn't seem to persist a reboot. Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm using debian from the pinebook pro installer. Its not like the firmware somehow is getting reverted, because if I modify the updater to purely enter boot mode and then do a reset (skipping the actual firmware flashing), the touchpad is suddenly usable and great again. As far as I can tell, nothing is different when Xorg detects the device the second time -- the logs indicate the same parameters with respect to acceleration, the only thing that changes is the ID (event11 instead of event7 in my case), probably because its rediscovered.
I'm tempted to just trigger this on my xsession.
