Dennis, if you did "modprobe psmouse", you didn't really fix the problem, you just force the kernel to load the generic driver instead.
All advanced (and not so advanced) features are lost.

Title:
  Touchpad elantech on Fujitsu E554 doesn't work at all

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The touchpad on my brand new Fujitsu E554 doesn't work. Nothing work.

  xinput list report (partial output only).

  Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
  ⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
  ⎜   ↳ USB Optical Mouse                       	id=12	[slave  pointer  (2)]
  ⎜   ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad                	id=14	[slave  pointer  (2)]

  The "pointer" is the trackpoint (which doesn't work either)
  Usb optical mouse is the mouse i added as a replacement
  ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad is the non working touchpad.

  In dmesg i get

  [  347.473934] psmouse serio2: Touchpad at isa0060/serio2/input0 lost sync at byte 6
  [  347.473942] psmouse serio2: issuing reconnect request

  This is ubuntu 3.16.0-28 generic (utopic) on AMD 64.

  I have tried with 3.17, same result.

  I have tried to install 3.18rc2 but my laptop won't boot. I will try
  from source.

  The touchpad is working correctly under Windows 7. I have flashed the
  bios.
