Cross-posted to 2 groups.

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
