" It was later fixed in the kernel with commit
c8b1b3dd89ea7b3f77a73e59c4c4495e16338e15."

I'm unable to use git at the moment but I remember seeing commit with 
description that
it fixes keyboard support. And if I've seen it, I've compiled and tested it for 
sure.

I broke WiFi of my E502SA with disconnecting battery:

And haven't used the computer much since, but looking at that comment, last 
kernel
I've tested was 4.10.0rc5 .

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 <red...@redmandi.dyndns.org>
  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.
