Trackpad not working at all in Lenovo G570

[Ignacio]

After upgrading from Ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10 the trackpad doesn't work.

I have tried installing the newest kernels 3.19, but doesn't make any difference.

When typing xinput in command line, synaptic trackpad doesn't appear on list.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.

Thanks in advance.
