Hello @PeeBee is the fdrv a requirement for boot+use of the 07/24/2021 ISOs?

Don't understand............
The Updates listed above do not use this 64-bit kernel....
but the iso does contain a suitable fdrv for use with it......

@peebee I tested this latest kernel. I noticed that synaptics touchpad does not work unlike previous kernel version

No changes that I know of ........... google search does not provide any info ............. what do you mean by "does not work"? Any clues in dmesg??
The touchpad does not work. Unable to intereact with mouse pointer. I checked dmesg, the touchpad does not detected. I tried lsmod the synaptics kernel module was not on the list. I tried hardinfo app still the touchpad doesn't detected even I tried lspci, it doesn't show the touchpad. However when I tried other linux distro such as Ubuntu, my touchpad was detected and works
I checked on my Samsung netbook and the synaptic pad worked fine
What firmware fdrv are you using? Try a different one?
Anyone else having problems?
Seems ok here. Just did a 5.14.0 to 5.14.2 bump on the LxPupSc64 21.04 +3 install on the i5 based Fujitsu S761. The touchpad (detected as synaptics) continues to work correctly on this HW/OS. Quick check of browsers, Sylpheed ok, not much else tested as yet. Most relevant stuff below:

@peebee I tested the kernel still my touchpad doesn't work. synaptics_i2c kernel module does not load. It seems there is more HID and I2C kernel modules related to synaptics_i2c might be missing from compiling take a look on this list of loaded kernel modules from my laptop between Ubuntu kernel and LxPup kernel. My current laptop is Acer Aspire ES1-433
P.S: Please include basic ACPI kernel modules on the kernel. Your kernel unable to shutdown and reboot from initrd shell or when zdrv module is not loaded
Update: I tried your kernel on Lenovo S130 the touchpad not working.

There isn't a 32-bit version of 5.14 that I know about........ I only build 64-bit kernels
You can get a 32-bit version of latest 5.10 LTS from:
