hello, i have an Asus X550L and i have the same problem, but i search and i found an little solution, dont work 2 finger but is better than nothing.
the solution is in this website: http://askubuntu.com/questions/470388 /how-do-i-get-the-touchpad-working-on-an-asus-x450l ##################################### Work Around Credit to Hans De Goede (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1314198/comments/31) This should enable the mouse to work as a normal touchpad mouse, so no multi-touch. You need to add a Kernel Boot Parameter to set the flag psmouse.proto=bare which will enable PS/2 Mouse Emulation mode on your touchpad. To do this you can edit your default grub file. sudo nano /etc/default/grub Find the line that mentions GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" (or something similar) and add the flag to the end of the quoted string. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash psmouse.proto=bare" Then save the file and run a grub update. sudo update-grub Then restart the system and (hopefully) enjoy your new touchpad in PS/2 Emulation Mode. This is a temporary fix as Hans De Goede mentions, this isn't a trivial fix. If I'm reading the situation correctly, support for the software that handled the touchpad used in the ASUS 550 range (and some other models) was deprecated in 14.04 and a suitable replacement hasn't yet been developed. So for now we don't get multi-touch in 14.04. Having struggled with this for a while and finding nothing but launchpad bug reports, I'm pretty happy to finally have a working touchpad even if it doesn't have multi-touch! ########################### -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325881 Title: [Asus X550LD] Touchpad not working/detected Ubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1325881/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
