Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.19 kernel[0].
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.

In windows everything works, but in Ubuntu it does not respond at all. An external mouse does work fine, it is only the touchpad that does not work. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#generalinfo instructs to attatch ~/dmesg, ~/devices, and /var/log/Xorg.0.lo but launchpad only allows one attatchement so i will combine them in an archive. Any help/soludion/fix will be much appreciated, as i have been using ubuntu for years now on previous computers, and i would really regret it having to change back to windows because the touchpad is not working on my new laptop. EDIT: after searching even more on the internet i found a work around for similar types of laptops: echo "blacklist i2c_hid" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf Afterwards i rebooted but the touchpad still did not work, but when i shut down my computer later and restarted is a second time the touchpad started working! So i guess that is because of this work around.
