Title:
ASUS GU501GM touchpad not detected
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
The touchpad on the new ASUS GU501GM (the junior Zephyrus M that is a
Best Buy exclusive) does not seem to be detected whatsoever. Below is
a printout of "xinput list". I've also attached output files for
devices, dmesg, lspci -vnvn, Xorg.0.log, and version.log. I suspect
it is an Elantech. I did manage to get one command to print ELAN120x
(x being some number). Alas, I don't remember the command now, and
none of what I've attached is showing it. (Sorry, I've had a long
night of troubleshooting.) The Windows 10 device manager won't even
list the brand, even though it's working there. Still, I am fairly
confident it's Elan, as that's what ASUS seems to roll with these
days.
I've tried various combinations of i8042.* kernel parameters, but to
no avail. I've also tried blacklisting i2c_hid. It's like it thinks
the touchpad is a keyboard? I'm on Ubuntu 18.04. I've tried the
mainstream kernel 4.16.7, also to no avail. The latest release
candidate (#4) for 4.17 would not let me log in past SDDM, and I
noticed no touchpad miracle while I was in the SDDM login screen.
If you have any further suggestions of what I could try, I would very
much appreciate it! Thanks in advance!
