[Bug 1385137] Re: [ASUS N550JK] Touchpad recognized wrongly as PS/2 mouse

 

The initial reporter has a Focaltech touchpad. The patch has been already made and backported to Ubuntu kernel.
It has not been applied upstream. So those who have

FLT101 or FLT102 in

dmesg | grep pnp

can try my build

If there are any issues feel free to report here or in github.

Title:
   [ASUS N550JK] Touchpad recognized wrongly as PS/2 mouse

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Unknown
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The touchpad on my ASUS N550JK laptop is being recognized as a PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse, rather than as a touchpad. 
  In this configuration it only works to move the pointer or clicking, all the advanced features (multi-touch, pinch, zoom, scroll...) can't be properly configured.

  This is the output of xinput:

  ⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
  ⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
