To avim (avisoftware123). You have an Asus FTE1001 TouchPad. Your TouchPad is supported by the Linux Kernel 4.10 and up. You can try to grab kernel 4.10+ from here and install it on your system: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline.
If current daily builds of Zesty Zapus include Linux Kernel 4.10 you can try them to help Ubuntu developers test that Ubuntu includes the driver for this hardware in the latest builds. But I have read these are still using 4.9 kernel, which doesn't include the driver, it has been accepted only into kernel 4.10. If you want to use your existing kernel of your Ubuntu distribution you might want to try DKMS driver from here: https://github.com/vlasenko/hid-asus-dkms which is the original place where the Linux driver for this hardware is being developed and tested. Please see this kernel issue thread for proofs: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120181 ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #120181 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120181 -- 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/1646622 Title: TouchPad doesn't work ASUS x556uj Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My TouchPad doesn't work on ASUS x556uj-xx186D It is a new laptop, with dual bot with windows 10, and the touchpad work fine in windows 10. in my ubuntu 16.10 the touchpad isn't working.
