Comment (by cb88):
I see something very similar on my x131e AMD e2-1800. Seems to run
Hrev52246 pretty well other than no wifi (its BCM43228 I may have a
realtek or intel card I can switch it to will have to check but it has to
be on the laptop's whitelist unfortunately)
I installed Haiku from qemu wit -cdrom anyboot.iso -device
file=/dev/sda,index=0,type=disk,format=raw -boot d
rebooted (chainloaded the Haiku partition from syslinux) trackpad worked
on the first native reboot, trackpoint did not, warm rebooted same thing,
also the trackpad was acking wierd button clicks were not working as
expected and it was registering clicks from the touchpad itself too often
making it hard to go through the menus etc.. did a cold reboot and it
works. Note the syslog still shows the PS/2 reset errors but it works
seemingly without issues both trackpad and trackpoint are very usable.
Note the wifi on this laptop experiences a similar issue, sometimes it
doesn't come up after a warm reboot. Through I haven't noticed this yet on
Linux 4.17 it may have been fixed.
