Bug description:
  fux@HP-Pavilion-11-x2-Notebook-PC:~$ xinput list
  ⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]

  ⎜   ↳ ELAN Touchscreen                        	id=12	[slave  pointer  (2)]

  
  fux@HP-Pavilion-11-x2-Notebook-PC:~$ synclient -l
  Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?


  i tried to change  /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf

   Section "InputClass"
          Identifier "touchpad catchall"
          Driver "synaptics"
          MatchIsTouchpad "on"
  # This option is recommend on all Linux systems using evdev, but cannot be
  # enabled by default. See the following link for details:
  # http://who-t.blogspot.com/2010/11/how-to-ignore-configuration-errors.html
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
  EndSection

  Section "InputClass"
          Identifier "touchpad ignore duplicates"
          MatchIsTouchpad "on"
          MatchOS "Linux"
          MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/mouse*"
          Option "Ignore" "on"
  EndSection

  # This option enables the bottom right corner to be a right button on
  # non-synaptics clickpads.
  # This option is only interpreted by clickpads.
  Section "InputClass"
          Identifier "Default clickpad buttons"
          MatchDriver "synaptics"
          Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0"
  #       To disable the bottom edge area so the buttons only work as buttons,
  #       not for movement, set the AreaBottomEdge
  #       Option "AreaBottomEdge" "82%"
  EndSection

  # This option disables software buttons on Apple touchpads.
  # This option is only interpreted by clickpads.
  Section "InputClass"
          Identifier "Disable clickpad buttons on Apple touchpads"
          MatchProduct "Apple|bcm5974"
          MatchDriver "synaptics"
          Option "SoftButtonAreas" "0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0"
  EndSection


  I build a /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/55-synaptics-userdefined.conf

  Section "InputClass"
     Identifier "touchpad catchall"
     Driver "synaptics"
     MatchIsTouchpad "on"
     MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
     Option "SHMConfig"  "on"
     
  EndSection
