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!
