I install Ubuntu 18.04 on ASUS N550JV and Touchpad it does not work properly.

I see asus.com and I did not find any updates for Ubuntu

How do I update the touchpad on Ubuntu 18.04?

Thanks

UPDATE:

I run xinput:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]

What is the current behavior of Touchpad, how is it not working? Please provide more information.

Since your touchpad is Elantech with id=13, try running.

$ xinput --set-prop 13 "Device Enabled"  0

  • Did you follow through all steps listed on the mentioned answer or just sudo nano /etc/default/grub – vipulgupta2048 Feb 09 '19 at 15:01
  • Thanks for the upvote, but you need to mention how your touchpad is not working? Is it not registring the right movement? is it erratic? Try searching with those terms so that I can help you further. – vipulgupta2048 Feb 09 '19 at 15:03
