.....I'm announcing the release of the 5.2.13 kernel.

Only users of the elantech driver need to update to fix a regression in
a previous release........

commit 4c634717d7783c767480fe567ea82bf179f849ca

Revert "Input: elantech - enable SMBus on new (2018+) systems"

This reverts commit 60956b018bfe23b879405a7d88103d0a8f06a5e3 which is
commit 883a2a80f79ca5c0c105605fafabd1f3df99b34c upstream.

This patch depends on an other series:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project...A&archive=both

It was a mistake to backport it in the v5.2 branch, as there
is a high chance we encounter a touchpad that needs the series
above.

The 32-bit version of Dave's Unofficial Slackbuilt Kernel update for the 4.4.y series can be found at, https://dusk.idlemoor.tk

Maybe, just maybe, the 64-bit version will become available later today or tomorrow.

No, the x86_64 version still is stuck at .182, so Dave's script to build it really is broken. Hope he comes back soon to fix it.
Luckily I myself only need the 32-bit (i686) version.

He never did respond to my tweet asking him if he was OK. He's still active on Twitter, his last activity was a week ago.

Can you tell him that his script for DUSK 64-bit doesn't work anymore?
