Firstly, thank you so much for the reply and I have read several articles for how to do that test the latest kernel thing you have told me since I am really new basically to so many things in this computer world.
So, I followed the method from the internet to download 4 files from that mainline kernel page you posted. And run that 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb' command but I got some severe error that it even impacted the system update that a No-Entry-road traffic sign appears next to wifi icon in the top menu bar saying "An error occured... The error message was:'Error: BrokenCount > 0'...." Here's what happened when I did what I said above in the terminal: # Start of the output benjamin@benjamin-T300FA:~/Desktop/Kernel-v4.17$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb [sudo] password for benjamin: (Reading database ... 282458 files and directories currently installed.)

But the result was just as same as above.

It seems impossible to match the answer on the internet to my situation since my device is so different among those who work in tech and using Linux... However, there's another kind of exciting news I found out that the touchpad is working again after the laptop wake up from suspend mode(I need to click the power button to light up the screen then input the password, just like that sleep mode in windows) But when the touchpad is working, there's no touchpad related setting(even under Mouse & Touchpad setting) and I can't use the fn + touchpad lock to lock the touchpad, which by the way, the fn + screen brightness control key combo not working either. So, thank you for reading and would be happy to die if you can let me know what should I do to deal with my problems when trying to install an updated kernel, thanks again! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767930 Title: ASUS T300F Touchpad only works sometimes and no pertinent setting under Mouse & Touchpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1767930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
