Hello,
can you check the following for us:
1. Boot to desktop, check if the Touchpad can be enabled with hotkey Fn
+ F7
2. Try to change Touchpad setting in your BIOS (if applicable), test it
with Touchpad set to "Basic" instead of "Advanced", see if this helps.
3. If not, keep it in Basic mode and try to add i8042.nopnp the following steps:
Edit your grub file /etc/default/grub with:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
And add the "i8042.nopnp" option in the following line, to change it from:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
into something like:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i8042.nopnp quiet splash"
Save the file and exit, then execute:
sudo update-grub
Please attach the dmesg output (sudo dmesg > dmesg.log) after reboot
with this option added to your grub. Thanks!

Title:
Touchpad not working in Ubuntu on Acer Aspire E3-112
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hello y'all!
I'm quite a newbie in Linux/Ubuntu, so please bear with me :) My
touchpad is not working. I'm using Ubuntu and Windows in my computer
with dual boot, I have to choose Ubuntu each time I open the computer.
The Touchpad works just fine in Wİndows, but in Ubuntu it doesn't
detect it. I came here following the infor in this link:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection
My computer is Acer Aspire E 11 // E3-112-C536, I have a Fn key which
I use in Windows to activate/disable the touchpad and many other
things, in Ubuntu, when I press Fn and f7 (the touchpad activation key
in my computer) all the mouse movement is disabled and I have to
restart the system.
Do you have any suggestions that I can follow?
All the best
Murat
