Title:
Focaltech touchpad is emulated as an Elantech mouse
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in linux-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The touchpad is wrongly recognized as an Elantech PS/2 and behaves as
mouse. It works but it misses many of the typical gestures needed by a
touchpad, like two fingers scrolling or side scrolling.
A possible solution could be to patch the kernel to have the required
driver, as you search on the web it is a very common issue among ASUS
users. Here [1] you can find a patched kernel. I will try it to check
if it works and corrects the issue.
