As situation has clearly improved (touchpad works fine here now on my machines too, where they did not before), I'm closing this bug. @dinar: maybe you can check if it works for you now, with latest images?

It does work for me in the latest builds that use libinput, indeed. Samuel

You are right to being cautious :) But you can download through https with https://people.debian.org/~sthibault/tmp/mini.iso to make sure that it is coming from the people.debian.org domain, which only Debian Developers like myself can put data on. And Debian Developers can already upload anything to the Debian archive, see for instance your /usr/share/doc/libc6/changelog.Debian.gz to see that you are already using packages that I have uploaded to Debian.

Depending on the laptop brand and manufacture, making the touchpad work will vary. On my XPS13, it is connected through i2c to a PCI intel lpss card. On another laptop, exactly the same model of touchpad could be connected another way, thus requiring another driver. Samuel signature.asc Description: PGP signature

"Dinar, could you try the image from http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/tmp/mini.iso to see whether it helps? " i have downloaded it but then become afraid , that malware may be there. (even if i remove hdd, firmware can be infected). maybe i will/would do it, when/if i read some amount of information about you. "This bug report is unlikely to be actionable unless you specify *exactly* which model of computer you are using. There are literally hundreds of different touchpad devices out there." i was going to write exact laptop model, but i became afraid that this information can help somebody to infect my laptop's firmwares. and seems that info is not useful to know out exact touchpad model.

I found that the i2c bus is behind a PCI card which is driven by the intel_lpss_pci driver. Loading this by hand got the touchpad detected. Xorg didn't pick it up however, only the touchscreen.

I tried to rmmod i2c_designware_platform on my installed system, the mouse stopped working, so it seems to be required, at the very least. I tried to add i2c-modules to a g-i image, i2c_designware_platform didn't get loaded automatically, and even loading it manually didn't make the mouse detected. Samuel
