Hi there, I would like to add further details on this issue I'm experiencing on an Acer Aspire ES1-711-P0HA. It has been worked fine up to kernel 3.19.0-51, then no working touchpad from 3.19.0-56 onwards.
Following two excerpts of "dmesg" and "syslog" for each kernel 3.19.0-51 and 3.19.0-58. As you can see the ELAN0501:00 04F3:300B touchpad device is recognized from the -51 kernel, whereas the -58 kernel times out the 80860F41:00 controller and isn't be able to initialize the device driver. For sake of completness I have to report just one unrepeated event where the touchpad has worked with kernel -56. A last detail, that I found at least unusual, is that the kernel 3.19.0-51 has been compiled with gcc version 4.8.4, whereas the last kernel version 3.19.0-58 has been compiled with the previous gcc version 4.8.2. # dmesg [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.19.0-51-generic (buildd@lgw01-44) (gcc version 4.8.4 (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.1) ) #58~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 26 22:02:58 UTC 2016 (Ubuntu 3.19.0-51.58~14.04.1-generic 3.19.8-ckt13) ...
