Also, i just installed your Kernel but i don’t know how to boot from it in rEFInd ?

I am reading that rEFInd uses the most recent timestamp when choosing kernels in the /boot folder. I don’t understand because my 3.14.3 should have the most recent one ?

For those reading this wanting to install and test a new kernel i used UKUU which has a GUI. To then boot from it apply what i did in my below edit.

Edit : So what i did is “cd /boot” then “stat *” to see the different kernels and their timestamps. Then i did “sudo touch vmlinuz-4.14.3-041403-generic” to update its timestamp to the current date and time and bingo, i booted on the 4.14.3

Edit 2 : i just installed the last kernel available the 4.15.0-041500rc4-generic and so far so good, the Touchpad is still working. I just have a weird CUPS daemon error at startup but it now seems to happen whatever kernel i use. A “sudo apt-get update && upgrade” just resolved my error.

Edit 3 : Something very interesting just happened! While on 4.15.0 rc4 kernel the Trackpad just froze for the first time. And i did manage to make it work again without rebooting, i did “sudo rmmod i2c_hid” and then “sudo modprobe i2c_hid” to relaunch it and boom the mouse moved again. I’m still gonna revert to 4.14.8 to see if a froze happen. I won’t have this computer for long so i’m trying everything i can to find answers.
