I got an Acer Aspire F 15 F5-572G-56CU and my touchpad isn't working. I already go newest server-xorg-input-synaptics already installed. I break my head for about 2 days about this problem. New installed xubuntu on 1 disk drive with 1 partition. Hope somebody can help me.

  • In the search bar above enter 17.10 touchpad or 17.10 keyboard for many Q&As. Click on newest and hopefully within you'll find a solution. – WinEunuuchs2Unix Jan 28 '18 at 02:20
  • You can also check if the touchpad works under vanilla(main) Ubuntu. Try running Ubuntu from live CD/USB. If touchpad works under Ubuntu and you can't find any solution, you may install Ubuntu and install Xubuntu desktop over it(https://askubuntu.com/questions/65861/how-to-i-change-from-ubuntu-to-xubuntu). As last resort :-) – HattinGokbori87 Jan 28 '18 at 20:44

Get the list of input devices and you will see, if the touchpad is recognized.

xinput

Also you can search the dconf-editor for the term "touchpad" to see, if its already enabled. Via Terminal:

dconf-editor

Grub Bootloader cause touchpad and trackpoint not working

  • So if i xinput this output occurs: Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ELAN0501:00 04F3:300B Touchpad id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Razer Razer Abyssus id=16 [slave pointer (2)] Tried the thing with dconf-editor - didn't work. – numbface Jan 28 '18 at 10:16
