I have a Lenovo Y700 laptop with Ubuntu 16.04 installed and I have a several issues connected with Elantech touchpad that is installed on this laptop model. First of all, answers from this question did not help me (can't compile drivers). From the other question I found that they are not compatible with my kernel and I found there a 'fixed' version that did compile yet still didn't help me. Touchpad seems to be working when the following touchegg config loads: synclient ClickFinger3=0 synclient TapButton3=0 touchegg & It does loads only after a system update (if anything gets updated). I guess the issue is somehow connected with my Razer Deathadder 3500 DPI mouse. If the system gots updated and I use only touchpad it seems to work correctly. But after plug/unplug of the mouse all goes bananas. Fix for /etc/default/grub from this answer also doesn't help. Neither does editing 50-synaptics.conf from this answer. Here are some system info that should help: xinput: Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse id=14 [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)] ↳ Video Bus id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Lenovo EasyCamera id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Ideapad extra buttons id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] lsinput (only mouse detection part): /dev/input/event14 bustype : BUS_I8042 vendor : 0x2 product : 0x1 version : 99 name : "PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse" phys : "isa0060/serio1/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_REL The mouse detect properly and listed in lsusb as razer mouse. Yet rezercfg fails to detect it. Module psmouse is loaded during the startup. After system login or executing .xprofileconfiguration from console I get: Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded? I can provide additional information on your request. Any help is appreciated as I don't have enough time now to switch to Arch Linux (where as a rule of thumb everything works correctly).
