- Add 'user' field mapping in get-ssh-config for compatibility
- Add default identity-file (~/.ssh/id_ed25519_admin) for sma user
- Fix update-flake function syntax error in deployment.scm
- All SSH operations (deploy, status, health, ssh command) now use sma user consistently
- Extract deploy-rs code into separate module (lab/deploy-rs.scm)
- Create new SSH + rsync deployment module (lab/ssh-deploy.scm)
- Make SSH + rsync the default deployment method
- Update help text and examples

Removing custom udev rules since they weren't needed in earlier
working configurations. Testing with clean 6.1 LTS kernel to see
if touchpad works naturally without interference.
The LTS kernel (6.1) is handling the ITE8353 touchpad much better.
Removing blacklisted modules to see if the proper drivers can now
work correctly with the improved kernel support.
LTS kernel 6.1.142 successfully established communication with ITE8353:
- Device properly detected and HID descriptor read
- Input events are being received from touchpad
- Debug output shows device is working at HID level
- Need to bind to proper input driver for touchpad functionality
The laptop worked fine with older NixOS and Arch installations,
suggesting a kernel regression in 6.12.x. Switching to LTS
kernel 6.1 to test if this resolves the ITE8353 touchpad issue.
The ITE8353 touchpad is still being bound to hid-sensor-hub instead
of hid-multitouch. Blacklisting hid_sensor_hub should force it to
use the proper touchpad driver.
Based on dmesg analysis, found that:
- ITE8353 touchpad is detected but bound to hid-sensor-hub
- AMD Sensor Fusion Hub (amd_sfh) is interfering with touchpad
- Error: 'pcie_mp2_amd 0000:02:00.7: amd_sfh_hid_client_init failed err -95'
Blacklisting amd_sfh module should allow touchpad to work properly.
- Document ITE8353 touchpad issue on little-rascal
- List all attempted solutions and current status
- Provide next steps for further investigation
- Include useful debugging commands and references
- Add udev rule to unbind from hid-sensor-hub and bind to hid-multitouch
- Add i2c_hid_acpi.probe_defer parameter to help with device detection
- This should fix the touchpad being misidentified as a sensor hub
- Add ITE8353 touchpad support with I2C HID modules
