My new laptop is HP OMEN 16 4080(2023 Released).And When I use the Ubuntu 20.04, its touchpad can not be detected.

wp@wp-OMEN:~$ xinput

I tried to switch to Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel v6.2.0.26 and the touchpad works indeed. Then I tried to upgrade the kernel of Ubuntu 20.04 from v5.19 to v6.2 and this touchpad also works well.It's certainly that the old kernel is not compatible with new hardware.

I have a project which needs to use ROS1(Robot operate system), so I can not use 22.04LTS recently.The method of upgrading kernel will lead to installation errors of NVIDIA drivers. What should I do to make the OS be compatible with new hardware as well as use ROS1?

Is there any plan for Canonical to upgrade the Linux kernal from v5.19 to v6.xx on Ubuntu 20.04.7 in the future?
