Cristopher, I followed your request and installed the upstream kernel: $ uname -r 3.18.0-031800rc4-generic
There was no evident change whatsoever in the behaviour of the notebook: I run sudo apt-get upgrade, but no new drivers were installed. Finally, the result of xinput did not change: $ sudo xinput list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=9 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Asus WMI hotkeys id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] ** Tags added: kernel-fixed-upstream-3.18-rc4 ** Tags removed: kernel-fixed-upstream-3.18-rc4 ** Tags added: kernel-exists-upstream-3.18-rc4 ** Tags removed: kernel-exists-upstream-3.18-rc4 ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream-3.18-rc4 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1390857 Title: [Asus X751LA] Touchpad not recognised in Ubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1390857/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
