[Bug 1372609] Re: Touchpad detected as mouse on Asus ux303ln laptop

 

Well this is just great... xD
I am really confused right now.

So I updated my Kubuntu from 14.10 to 15.04.
Touchpad worked fine with the kernel version 3.16.0-33-generic.

It was working for a while and then I performed an update with:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
And I got the new kernel version: 3.19.0-16-generic

After the update/upgrade my touchpad doesn't work anymore.
Then I tried installing kernel version: 4.0.1-040001-generic
Still doesn't work.

I don't know what am I doing wrong here.
Now my System Settings -> Ponting devices -> Touchpad says "Synaptics driver is not installed (or is not used)" again.
And if I enter the command  "synclient" I get this error message:  "Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?".

The xorg log (command: "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log") got my eye on this:
[     4.901] (II) config/udev: Adding input device PS/2 FocalTech FocalTech Touchpad (/dev/input/mouse0)
[     4.901] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
[     4.901] (II) This device may have been added with another device file.
Full output is here: http://pastebin.com/N78EWUYc 

And under my /dev/input/ directory I have 3 mouse files (mouse0, mouse1 and mouse2) all with the size of 0 bytes.
My assumption is that mouse0 is (or should be) the touchpad, mouse1 my real USB mouse, and mouse2 my other real USB mouse that I plugged in my PC on my other USB port.


Anyways... Can anyone help me? How can I get this to finally work? :(
My PC unusable like this...

Title:
  Touchpad detected as mouse on Asus ux303ln laptop

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Arch Linux:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi! I'm following the bug reporting documentation here:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#In_case_Touchpad_features_like_scrolling.2C_tapping.2C_etc._do_not_work_at_all.

  The touchpad on my new Asus ux303ln laptop is detected as a mouse, so
  I can't access touchpad features such as two-finger scrolling.

  The laptop was very recently released and I couldn't find any
  outstanding firmware updates for it through Asus's Windows-based
  tools.

  % lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  Per the instructions on the wiki, I'm attaching output from
  /proc/bus/input/devices,` xinput --list`, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

  This machine also has a touchscreen, which I'm fairly certain is the
  "maXtouch digitizer" visible in the logs. I haven't yet restarted in
  Windows to see if it says anything useful about the touchpad, but I
  can do so if that's helpful. This is a fresh install of 14.04 and I
  haven't done much customization of it apart from installing some
  applications and changing the default resolution.

  The only relevant bit I noticed in /var/log/dmesg is this:
