OK, then that's either a kernel bug or libinput.
The kernel discussion will happen here. But in case it's a libinput bug then
please also report the problem here:

Title:
Elantech touch pad device not detected/working properly
Status in libinput package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I just upgraded to Ubuntu 17.10 (hooray, GNOME!). But there are some
quirks. Under Unity/Ubuntu 17.04 my built-in Touchpad worked
flawlessly - especially the "natural scrolling" mode was working well.
As I saw under Ubuntu Gnome 17.04, the corresponding setting in gnome-
control-center "Natural scrolling" just targets the mouse and has no
effect on the touchpad.
I can see the touchpad using "xinput list":
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer
(2)]
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=14 [slave pointer
(2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech Performance MX id=12 [slave pointer
(2)]
alongside my Logitech mouse on a Unifying receiver.
Is there any chance that this touchpad is detected? Or should I forget about
that (WONTFIX) as Xorg is already unsupported?
ATM I am using the prop. nvidia drivers. Currently uninstalling them to see
if Wayland is starting using nouveau...
Thanks.
What else do you need from me?
