Public bug reported: The ELAN (not Elantech) touchpad in my Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99430) laptop/tablet hybrid is not properly recognized. Both the touchscreen and the touchpad function as a regular mouse, but the touchpad shows up as an ITE Tech. Inc. ITE Device(8910) pointer in xinput (see attachment). Multitouch and scrolling however, do not function, nor do options for this show up in the Mouse & Touchpad options in Ubuntu 14.10 64-bit.
Another problem is that the keyboard does not function at all. It does work in the bootloader, but as soon as Ubuntu boots, the keyboard dies. I have managed to get it to work by increasing the value of HID_MAX_USAGES in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/hid.h, but this seems more like a workaround, rather than solving the problem itself. (source of the workaround: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2247265) I am new at this, so I apologize beforehand if I have forgotten to include some important information or reported it for the wrong package.
