ASUS Precision Touchpad not listed/found in ubuntu. ASUS TUF FX504GE-EN224T

This is a new laptop version from ASUS. I have somehow installed ubuntu on it after referring to various posts. But still, I am not able to configure the touchpad. There are solutions proposed that upgrading the kernel to 4.19.1+ fixes the problem. I have tried 4.19.1, 4.19.2, 4.19.3, 4.19.4, 4.19.5, 4.19.6 but still the problem persists.

In both the cases the touchpad is not recognised at the kernel level.



Can I assume safely that there is no support for this trackpad as of now. Or is there any other mechanism through which I can debug this?



PS: External mouse works just fine. It works good on windows

      This is a new laptop version from ASUS. I have somehow installed ubuntu on it after referring to various posts. But still, I am not able to configure the touchpad. There are solutions proposed that upgrading the kernel to 4.19.1+ fixes the problem. I have tried 4.19.1, 4.19.2, 4.19.3, 4.19.4, 4.19.5, 4.19.6 but still the problem persists.

      In both the cases the touchpad is not recognised at the kernel level.



      Can I assume safely that there is no support for this trackpad as of now. Or is there any other mechanism through which I can debug this?



      PS: External mouse works just fine. It works good on windows

      This is a new laptop version from ASUS. I have somehow installed ubuntu on it after referring to various posts. But still, I am not able to configure the touchpad. There are solutions proposed that upgrading the kernel to 4.19.1+ fixes the problem. I have tried 4.19.1, 4.19.2, 4.19.3, 4.19.4, 4.19.5, 4.19.6 but still the problem persists.

          Have you try kernel 4.19.11? I am using FX504GE too. Just run these command to update your kernel:



          # fix touchpad kernel
          mkdir /tmp/install
          cd /tmp/install
          wget https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.11/linux-headers-4.19.11-041911_4.19.11-041911.201812191931_all.deb
          wget https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.11/linux-headers-4.19.11-041911-generic_4.19.11-041911.201812191931_amd64.deb
          wget https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.11/linux-image-unsigned-4.19.11-041911-generic_4.19.11-041911.201812191931_amd64.deb
          wget https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.11/linux-modules-4.19.11-041911-generic_4.19.11-041911.201812191931_amd64.deb
          sudo dpkg -i *.deb


          The only not solved bug is when there is 5 touch in your touchpad, it will freeze. To solve this problem I run this script as root:



          SUSPEND_MODULES="i2c_hid"

          for mod in $SUSPEND_MODULES; do
          rmmod $mod
          modprobe $mod
          done


          I hope this will help you :D

          • Thanks. In your gist it is specifically showing the elantech touchpad which was not in my case. After careful observation I noticed that I was running Ubuntu 18.04.1 minimal install So, I tried and tested it on the regular flavour of Ubuntu. It works out of box. Marking it as fixed. :)

          sudo dpkg -i *.deb


          The only not solved bug is when there is 5 touch in your touchpad, it will freeze. To solve this problem I run this script as root:



          SUSPEND_MODULES="i2c_hid"

          for mod in $SUSPEND_MODULES; do
          rmmod $mod
          modprobe $mod
          done


          I hope this will help you :D

          • Hey Prakash, Tried upgrading it to 4.19.11, 4.19.13, 4.20. Nothing works. The problem is my hardware is not getting detected. Can you post the output of xinput list

          • Thanks. In your gist it is specifically showing the elantech touchpad which was not in my case. After careful observation I noticed that I was running Ubuntu 18.04.1 minimal install So, I tried and tested it on the regular flavour of Ubuntu. It works out of box. Marking it as fixed. :)

          Have you try kernel 4.19.11? I am using FX504GE too. Just run these command to update your kernel:



          # fix touchpad kernel
          mkdir /tmp/install
          cd /tmp/install
          wget https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.19.11/linux-headers-4.19.11-041911_4.19.11-041911.201812191931_all.deb
