Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 4.19+102
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
a wide range of budget x86 tablets make use of Silead touchscreen controllers.
A driver for Silead touchscreen controllers was added to the Linux kernel a few
years ago, but it's not being built in the Debian kernel images at the moment.
To enable it, the following build configuration options would have to be set:
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_SILEAD=m
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_DMI=y
(https://github.com/onitake/gsl-firmware/issues/114#issuecomment-475989938)
Could you consider enabling these options for future builds?
Thank you very much!
Greetings,
Kai Renzig

Hi Debian kernel team,
It's been 4 years, and the Debian kernel is still lacking out-of-the-box
support for Silead touchscreen controllers and corresponding DMI quirks.
Can you please enable these options?
> CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_SILEAD=m
> CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_DMI=y
Thank you very much.
