I have bought a new laptop that of course comes with Windows 10. I installled Ubuntu and my Elantech Touchpad does not work at all and isn't recognized.
- Model: Lenovo Ideapad 320-15ABR
- Ubuntu version: 16.04.1
- Processor AMD A12-9720P RADEON R7, 12 COMPUTE CORES 4C+8G × 4
- Graphics: Gallium 0.4 on AMD CARRIZO (DRM 3.1.0 / 4.4.0-93-generic, LLVM 4.0.0)
- Kernel: 4.4.0-93-generic x86_64
I've installed 16.04.1 instead 16.04.2/3 since AMD drivers don't work on new Ubuntu architecture.
About my touchpad I post all my outputs (Synaptics / Elantech never appear)

If someone can help me I'll appreciate it. I'm going crazy and warranty don't cover it because the touchpad work well on Windows, even multitouch gestures...
