Public bug reported:

Hello,

I have a fresh installation of Ubuntu (Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS, Release: 20.04) on 
one partition of my HP Probook. The other partition is Win10 Pro. 
>From the first moments on the touchpad didn't work. But then i could solve the 
>issue and it worked fine for a while:
sudo apt remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

Then i installed VirtualBox and also installed some additional
dependencies:

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential zlibc zlib1g-dev ruby ruby-dev
openssl libxslt-dev libxml2-dev libssl-dev libreadline6 libreadline6-dev
libyaml-dev libsqlite3-dev sqlite3

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential zlibc zlib1g-dev ruby ruby-dev
openssl libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev libssl-dev libreadline7 libreadline-dev
libyaml-dev libsqlite3-dev sqlite3

I also installed ruby 2.7.0p0 (2019-12-25 revision 647ee6f091) 
[x86_64-linux-gnu] 
and GCC via:
sudo apt install build-essential

Now my touchpad doesn't work and i can't remove synaptics again, because its 
not even installed.
I also tried editing the grub file:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8042.nopnp"
and also tried:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LIN UX_DEFAULT="quiet splash psmouse.proto=bare"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop"

The devices-list proc/bus/input/devices is attached to this report but
unfortunately, there is no touchpad listed.


And here is the xinput list:
