Chris D, as per
http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/ASUS_ZENBOOK_UX31E/#support an
update is available for your BIOS (214). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Latest kernel makes Sentelic touchpad misbehave

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The latest kernel update in 12.04 brought with it a backported driver
  for Sentelic touchpads. However, this driver is causing extremely
  erratic behaviour. Particularly, two-finger scrolling causes web
  pages/etc to jump around eratically. Two-finger tap to right click is
  also not working.
