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)]

Title:
[Asus X751LA] Touchpad not recognised in Ubuntu 14.04
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The touchpad is currently working as a PS/2 mouse, however this
prevents from using synaptics/syndaemon to suspend touching while
typing, and double finger scrolling. The only solution is to toggle
the PS/2 mouse off and use an external mouse.
