Hi,
I tried the following kernel:
3.18.0-031800rc4-generic
Which does have different behaviour, though I do not know whether to
count it as a 'bug exists upstream', or 'fixed upstream' change.
I no longer need to boot with psmouse.proto=bare to get basic touchpad
functionality. xinput now returns:
xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 FocalTech FocalTech Touchpad in mouse emulation mode id=13 [slave
pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech Unifying Device. Wireless PID:400a id=9 [slave pointer
(2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ USB2.0 HD UVC WebCam id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Asus WMI hotkeys id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
Which shows the touchpad recognized as 'FocalTech Touchpad in mouse
emulation mode'. This appears to just provide basic touchpad
functionality, however, as I'm still unable to use any touchpad specific
features like two finger scrolling.
Please advise how to update the status.
Thanks!
Ben

Title:
[Asus X550LA] The trackpad is not recognized
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
The trackpad is not recognized on my ASUS D550MA-DS01. xinputs --list
shows no trackpad, and running synclient returns 'Couldn't find
synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?'. resort to using an
external USB mouse, and run 'sudo modprobe -r psmouse' after booting
to prevent random/unpredictable input occurring when I brush
against/click the trackpad.
WORKAROUND: Use kernel boot parameter:
psmouse.proto=bare
