A separate article about that touchpad would be nice, compare 044E:1220 and Dell_Latitude_E6430_(CYRTRY1)#Touchpad. --Vaukai (talk) 13:27, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
- Done. :-)

Stick

I see that there is a field in the table named "Stick". Is it "Pointstick" (marked as number 22 in the front view)? --Lars Hint (talk) 18:57, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- It is indeed - i've just updated the "Stick" entry to identify it as a 'Pointstick'.

DELL specifics

This discussion is still ongoing as of 2024-08-13.
Does this laptop need or have any of the DELL specifics described here?
- Hmm, well, here's the output of
zgrep CONFIG_DELL /proc/config.gz
:
CONFIG_DELL_LAPTOP=m # CONFIG_DELL_RBU is not set CONFIG_DELL_RBTN=m CONFIG_DELL_SMBIOS=m CONFIG_DELL_SMBIOS_WMI=y CONFIG_DELL_SMBIOS_SMM=y # CONFIG_DELL_SMO8800 is not set CONFIG_DELL_WMI=m # CONFIG_DELL_WMI_PRIVACY is not set # CONFIG_DELL_WMI_AIO is not set CONFIG_DELL_WMI_DESCRIPTOR=m # CONFIG_DELL_WMI_DDV is not set # CONFIG_DELL_WMI_LED is not set CONFIG_DELL_WMI_SYSMAN=m
- and here's the output of
lsmod | grep dell
:

- i've not yet noticed any functionality missing. This box is my daily driver, and since it's "just working", i've not experimented with disabling various bits of kernel config to check what happens.
