I solved this issue by turning trackpad in BIOS. Turns out that I forgot to turn that back on when I first messed with it. Thank you anyway

Touchpad experience was really horrible. I know for sure that it's not a hardware issue since I can get my trackpad working in BIOS. I tried Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and Manjaro. None of them worked. Anything else works flawlessly.

Really frustrating part it that there was a time that it worked. I bought this laptop like 2 days ago and first day was awesome. Although I had to reinstall once because my trackpad, at first, didn't work, everything worked just fine after that and I had a great time.
Everything went wrong right after that day. I booted my device again the next day and suddenly trackpad was not working again. I had the exact same issue and although it was frustrating I reinstalled ubuntu again. But it didn't work. More surprisingly the keyboard stopped working. I did like 4 re-installation of Ubuntu and they all had different issues. The following list is what I experienced so far

• Trackpad worked, but keyboard didn't


• Keyboard worked, but trackpad didn't


• Both keyboard and trackpad didn't work


• Keyboard and trackpad stopped working right after logging-in


• Trackpad didn't work including external usb mouse

After all that, all that issues finally converged to trackpad. The list is what I have tried and failed

1. acpi=off


2. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-libinput


3. xinput list => No trackpad visible.


4. sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics


5. Using different distro => Manjaro didn't work


6. less /proc/bus/input/devices => No trackpad visible.


7. Putting i8042.reset in grub


8. Turning On/Off virtual trackpad or whatever in my BIOS => I don't know what that is.

I'm really frustrated by this. I am giving my best hope at upgrading into 18.10 but I highly doubt that that's going to work. Anything else I can try? If this laptop's touchpad is really not supported by linux itself and that's the problem, what should I do? Should I give up?

I really need your help

  What is your laptop? Which version of Ubuntu did you install? It sounds very difficult to help you without this information...
