Bug description:
E502SA and several other new Asus laptops are missing touchpad
support.
Support for the Asus touchpad has been introduced only recently:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg48143.html
From the development kernel git:
"commit 9ce12d8be12c94334634dd57050444910415e45f
Author: Brendan McGrath <[email protected]>
Date: Tue Nov 29 18:59:25 2016 +1100
HID: asus: Add i2c touchpad support
Update the hid-asus module to add multitouch support for the Asus i2c
touchpad.
This patch aims to resolve the issue raised here:E
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.
The latest mainline kernel, Linux 4.9 that was released 11th of
December doesn't contain this patch.
I was able to get touchpad features to work with E502SA after patching
Xenial Xerus kernel with the above patch and the patches it depends
on.
