I have just bought Asus-X454L couple of days back. I am using 16.04 as OS on my machine. Its touchpad worked fine with windows 10 pre-installed by the seller. It was working fine with Ubuntu 16.04 for the first few hours. Now it is not responding.

Here is my xinput result:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ PixArt USB Optical Mouse                  id=12   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                     id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard               id=5    [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button                              id=6    [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus                                 id=7    [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button                              id=8    [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ USB2.0 VGA UVC WebCam                     id=9    [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ Asus WMI hotkeys                          id=10   [slave  keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard              id=11   [slave  keyboard (3)]

I tried to follow these links:

But none of them worked for me. How can I fix this problem? I using the whole HDD without any partition, and so could not try having a new setup.

Please [edit] your question and add output of xinput terminal command. – Pilot6 Nov 05 '16 at 11:35
Sorry, I am not familiar with xinput terminal command. – Dipto_Das Nov 05 '16 at 11:46
You do not need to be familiar with it. Just run it and add the output to your question. – Pilot6 Nov 05 '16 at 11:47
I've added the output to the question. – Dipto_Das Nov 05 '16 at 11:50
The touchpad is not detected, the mouse is probably a real mouse. Check the bios settings. – Pilot6 Nov 05 '16 at 12:30
I am using a real mouse because the touchpad is not working. – Dipto_Das Nov 05 '16 at 12:37
What's the output of the command synclient? [edit] your answer, add it there and then leave a comment here @fabby. – Fabby Nov 05 '16 at 13:14
@Fabby , here's the output of synclient:
"Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?"

I concur with @Pilot6: check the BIOS settings... – Fabby Nov 05 '16 at 16:07
I have solved the problem. Thank you for your co-operation. – Dipto_Das Nov 05 '16 at 16:08
