Bug#875621: ThinkPad X270 Synaptics Touchpad, RMI4 SMB
Hi folks,
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X270 and noticed that my kernel (Debian
buster/testing stock kernel) was suggesting that my Touchpad would
benefit from having CONFIG_RMI4_SMB enabled, so I raised this Debian bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=875621
This was closed today with an updated Debian kernel upload,
linux_4.13.10-1 (thanks Ben). The new kernel now says:

Your touchpad (PNP: LEN2049 PNP0f13) says it can support a different
bus. If i2c-hid and hid-rmi are not used, you might want to try setting
psmouse.synaptics_intertouch to 1 and report this to
linux-input@vger.kernel.org.

So I enabled psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=1 on my kernel command line
and voila, rmi4_smbus is used and my Touchpad is apparently much better
off for it. Great! Except I can't use my TrackPoint now, it no longer
shows up at all:

So I'm emailing both about having to enable synaptics_intertouch for my
Touchpad as instructed in dmesg, and also that enabling it makes my
TrackPoint disappear.
Please CC me on all replies, I'm not subscribed to linux-input@v.k.o.
Thanks,
