Touchpad not detected (ASUS Transformer Book Flip TP300LA)

[Olli Niemikorpi]

The command "xinput list" says there is a PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse. Touchpad works as a mouse, but without any scrolling facilities.

Olli Niemikorpi, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested exactly shown as:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.18-rc1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

[Olli Niemikorpi (mr-oole)]

Hi, tested both the 3.18-rc2 and 3.16.7 kernels. I was unable to boot with 3.18-rc2 so I installed the recent 3.16 kernel. The problem still exist with 3.16.7.

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Olli Niemikorpi, could you please test 3.18-rc1 and advise to the results?

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Olli Niemikorpi, could you please test the latest mainline kernel 3.18-rc3 and advise to the results?

[penalvch (penalvch)]
