Hi Helmut,

Thank you for sharing the article on MSFT (I'm been long wondering what does MSFT mean).

I think The Microsoft Precision Touchpad has been implemented in drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c.

$ git log --grep="Precision Touchpad"

    HID: multitouch: report MT_TOOL_PALM for non-confident touches
    
    According to Microsoft specification [1] for Precision Touchpads (and
    Touchscreens) the devices use "confidence" reports to signal accidental
    touches, or contacts that are "too large to be a finger". Instead of
    simply marking contact inactive in this case (which causes issues if
    contact was originally proper and we lost confidence in it later, as
    this results in accidental clicks, drags, etc), let's report such
    contacts as MT_TOOL_PALM and let userspace decide what to do.

And https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/legion-series/legion-5-15arh05/downloads/driver-list/ doesn't list the driver for the touchpad. According to this Chinese webpage https://newsupport.lenovo.com.cn/driveDownloads_detail.html?driveId=47994, no special driver is needed for Windows 10.

So maybe there are some issues in drivers/hid/hid-mulititouch.c. For for the Synaptics touchpad of this model, the pointer won't move but 2/3/4 fingers touching events can be reported. And for the Elan touchpad, according to Stefano, no events are reported.

Since both touchpads works on Windows and "Precision touchpad becomes mandatory for Windows 10 notebooks", we can fix both touchpads by fixing hid-mulittouch. Can someone show me the content of /sys/kernel/debug/hid/*\:04F3\:3140.0001/rdesc which has the Report Descriptors when your ELAN touchpad is being handled by hid-multitouch? For example, for the Synaptics touchpad,
