[Bug 1598139] [NEW] Unable to detect Synaptics Touchpad on Ubuntu 14.04, Dell Inspiron 5558

 

Public bug reported:

I have been debugging the touchpad issue by following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection.

I can use a USB mouse but, I have not been able to reinstall the drivers
for touchpad nor have I been able to detect any trace of Synaptics on
cat /proc/bus/input/devices

Please find the dmesg attached.
