Hello, Julien.

Many thanks for your speedy response and Season's Greetings to you and yours.

I have applied the patch and installed and the crashing has now stopped.

Unofrtunately, the touchscreen no longer does anything.

If I cat /dev/ttyS1 I do see data, but the mouse pointer doesn't respond at 
all.

Kind regards,
Peter
