I just purchased the same laptop today, installed Ubuntu 16.04 first
thing and the only glitch was the trackpad.

Following the instructions shared by the reporter, I was able to use the
trackpad.

So, I can confirm that this is indeed a bug and the workaround might be
a bit intimidating for the average user who is looking to use Ubuntu.
Would be really great if this worked out-of-the-box :)

Thanks a ton everyone for the good work. I am glad the reporter shared
the workaround.

Gratitude to everyone who will work on fixing this!
