hello I have a problem with my trackpad ,that it cant be found by my Ubuntu 14.04. I have followed this guide Install Synaptics but this error appears as I type synaptiks

No touchpad found
No touchpad was found in this system. If the system has a touchpad, please make sure that the synaptics driver is properly installed and configured.
If your touchpad is not found, though the driver is installed and configured correctly, please compile detailed information about your touchpad hardware and report this issue to the issue tracker.

Also this is my output on xlist

    ~$ xinput list

The most likeliest reason is it might not have located a driver for it. What you should do is on Google, search for a driver for your trackpad. For now, you can use a mouse.
