After performing another apt-get upgrade today the dmesg output provides more information including information on the PS/2 input being recognized.
I see this section specifically showing the touchpad not being recognized correctly: [ 6.137005] input: Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-8/1-8:1.0/0003:03EB:8A40.0002/input/input10 [ 6.137143] hid-generic 0003:03EB:8A40.0002: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Device [Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer] on usb-0000:00:14.0-8/i nput0 [ 6.139622] hid-generic 0003:03EB:8A40.0003: hiddev0,hidraw1: USB HID v1.11 Device [Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer] on usb-0000:00:14.0-8 /input1 [ 6.139671] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid [ 6.139672] usbhid: USB HID core driver [ 6.142764] input: PS/2 Generic Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input9 [ 6.144682] psmouse serio1: bad data from KBC - timeout [ 6.172060] hid-generic 0018:0483:91D1.0001: hidraw2: I2C HID v1.00 Device [SMO91D0:00 0483:91D1] on i2c-SMO91D0:00 [ 6.349611] psmouse serio1: bad data from KBC - timeout [ 6.553468] psmouse serio1: bad data from KBC - timeout ** Attachment added: "dmesg output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1809841/+attachment/5229462/+files/dmesg_out5.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1809841 Title: Touchpad showing as PS/2 Generic Mouse Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The touchpad on my HP 1011 Elite X2 G1 is showing as a PS/2 mouse after installation in xinput. Multitouch gestures do not work and installing xserver-xorg-input-synaptics did not resolve the issue. The touch pad uses the Synaptics driver in Windows 10. Other functionalities of the keyboard do work such as enabling/disabling wireless and volume up/down. The touchpad should be able to use multitouch for two-finger scrolling and two-finger tap for right click but instead only single touch inputs are accepted for left and right click. No multitouch gestures are recognized. Current version is Ubuntu 4.15.0-43.46-generic 4.15.18 on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS.
