I also have a 2014 Razer Blade 14" and am also having problems with the touchpad.

tpconfig detects the touchpad as Synaptics but no UI shows up in Mouse & Touchpad and synclient says no Synaptics driver is loaded.

I have a separate problem from the OP, though, in that I only want to turn off tap-to-click and other dumb touchpad stuff that I find makes laptops unusable. However, there is no UI for the touchpad at all, and when I try tpconfig --tapmode=0, it claims to work, but changes nothing in practice.

This is debilitating because even though I can use an external mouse, I cannot type reliably due to the cursor jumping around to random places in text fields every time my fingers get remotely close to the surface of the touchpad.
