[Bug 1536038] [NEW] ELAN1000 touchpad not recognised correctly, with upstream kernel it recognised, but freezes randomly

 

Public bug reported:

I've got an ASUS E403SA notebook with Ubuntu 15.10 and kernel
4.2.0-23-generic from default repository. The touchpad is in PS/2 mouse
emulation mode so multitouch like two-finger scrolling is not available.

Dmesg output attached and xinput --list shows:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ELAN1000:00 04F3:0401                   	id=11	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                   	id=3	[master keyboard (2)]

    ↳ Sleep Button                            	id=8	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ USB2.0 VGA UVC WebCam                   	id=10	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Asus WMI hotkeys                        	id=12	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard            	id=13	[slave  keyboard (3)]

The correct driver merged in 4.3.x kernel so I decided to test it from
mainline repo http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

With kernel 4.3.x and newer the touchpad recognised correctly and
multitouch works. After a while (minutes, sometimes hours) the touchpad
completely freezes with this message in syslog:
