[EN] Elan1203 touchpad not currently supported (common in Asus laptops)

(1/1)

Hellmark:
So, right now, it appears that the Elantech 1203 touchpad is not supported due to a kernel bug. As it stands for me, nothing pops up in dmesg, xinput, or libinput about it, but if you look at the /sys directory you can find /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-ELAN1203:00/

Also, I have found this kernel bug that shows a recent patch, but as far as I can tell it hasn't been accepted into mainline yet.

Everything else for the laptop works right out of the box, so sucks that this currently doesn't.

towo:
Which kernel version you have tested? At least the recent 5.14.9 can't apllied, because the code is always there.

Hellmark:
I went from stock, to 5.14.8, and yesterday switched up again. Current uname output

5.14.9-1-siduction-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT siduction 5.14-9 (2021-09-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux
