Note BIOS was upgraded to latest version before reporting.

Have also tested in upstream mainline kernel 3.16-rc7 with same results.

Title:
  [Toshiba Portege Z30] Touchpad / Trackpoint recognised as generic
  mouse

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 on Toshiba Portege Z30 series with
  both "Accupoint pointing device" and "Touch pad pointing device with
  multi-touch control" neither are recognised. In system settings the
  Touchpad tab is absent from System -> Preferences -> Mouse. Basic
  pointing and clicking is possible.

  Note that dmesg reports:
  ...
  [    1.197365] serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
  [    1.197715] mousedev: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
  ...
  [    1.826029] hub 2-6:1.0: 3 ports detected
  [    1.866199] psmouse serio1: alps: Unknown ALPS touchpad: E7=73 03 0a, EC=88 b3 22
  ...
  [    2.901657] input: PS/2 Generic Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6

  Typing on the keyboard is seriously hampered by inadvertent touchpad
  contact because there is no "disable touchpad on typing" option. A
  workaround to this issue would greatly increase the usability of my
  computer.
