"spi_pxa2xx_platform"

First, thank you and everyone else a lot for your work on this driver!

I installed the driver on my MBP13,3 runnig Kali (4.9.0). While the Touchbar works perfectly fine, neither the keyboard or the touchpad work. I nailed it down to the missing "spi_pxa2xx_platform" module, but I am lost on how to add it since this part is never mentioned anywhere on the web. I am aware that this is probably a newby question but I sincerely can not solve this on my own and would be very glad if someone could give me the right tip!

Have you tried Debian's Module Assistant? Otherwise you probably need to follow these instructions to recompile the Kali kernel - make sure you enable SPI_PXA2XX in the config.

Thank you so much, I recompiled the kernel (my first time) and it works like a charm now!

Glad to hear you got it working.
