Hi,

I'm experiencing the same issue described by users here -- the trackpad
is not recognized on my ASUS D550MA-DS01.

xinputs --list shows no trackpad, and running synclient returns
'Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?'. I
resort to using an external USB mouse, and run 'sudo modprobe -r
psmouse' after booting to prevent random/unpredictable input occurring
when I brush against/click the trackpad.

I've tried with a number of linux kernels, Ubuntu releases, and other
distributions.

The fix suggested by Hans (booting the kernel with psmouse.proto=bare)
was successful. Is it helpful for me to file a separate bug report?

Regards,
Ben
