Hi, I tried the following kernel:
3.18.0-031800rc4-generic Which does have different behaviour, though I do not know whether to count it as a 'bug exists upstream', or 'fixed upstream' change. I no longer need to boot with psmouse.proto=bare to get basic touchpad functionality. xinput now returns: xinput --list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 FocalTech FocalTech Touchpad in mouse emulation mode id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech Unifying Device. Wireless PID:400a id=9 [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=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Asus WMI hotkeys id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] Which shows the touchpad recognized as 'FocalTech Touchpad in mouse emulation mode'. This appears to just provide basic touchpad functionality, however, as I'm still unable to use any touchpad specific features like two finger scrolling. Please advise how to update the status. Thanks!
