The same situation here as Arushi , I have an HP pavilion 14-ab042TX laptop.The 
touchpad supports basic functionalities like single click but no multitouch and 
two finger scroll.
I am using ubuntu 16.04 and kernel is 4.4.0-36-generic. The output of xinput is 
:

⎣ Virtual core keyboard                         id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
