["Thor K. H." <nitrolinken@xxxxxxxxx>]

Christopher, thanks for your follow-up.

I've installed the linux-image for v3.17-rc6-utopic (Linux thor-lincoln-
library 3.17.0-031700rc6-generic #201409211935 SMP Sun Sep 21 23:37:11
UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux), and removed my workaround
before rebooting the system.

However, the symptoms are unchanged and identical (to the best of my
current experience).

If possible, please advise any furthe debugging that can be done whilst
on the mainline kernel, otherwise I'll go back to the stable kernel (due
to easier use with Virtualbox).

Title:
  [Fujitsu CELSIUS H730] Touchpad doesn't work unless middle-click is
  constantly pressed on an Elantech touchpad

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Issue: Using a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.10, I discovered that the
  touchpad did not work.

  Steps to reproduce: Install Ubuntu 14.10 on a Fujitsu H730 and attempt
  to use the touchpad.

  Further description: Due to the comments in bug #1300427 I've tested
  the mainline kernel version 3.17-rc5-utopic, and the only impact I
  recall was how the right-click button now also worked while pressing
  middle-click on the touchpad.

  WORKAROUND: Remove and load psmouse with proto=exps.

  After this, a bit further in time, I accidentally managed to click
  with the touchpad. It appears that the touchpad strangely enough works
  quite well as long as I hold down the middle click button. While
  holding it down, the touchpad seems to work rather well - including
  multitouch features. The joy is short, as it registers no input while
  depressed.
