[SOLVED] ASUS Touchpad Does not Work

Post by Dork Thirty » Tue Aug 07, 2018 4:55 pm

Linux Mint 19 Tara; just did a fresh install from a USB stick and the touchpad is unresponsive. It would not respond when running off the USB nor after I installed to the SSD.Computer is an ASUS ROG Strix Scar, 17″, i7-8550H. I’m also having an issue with shutdown not functioning, but I put that in a separate thread.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I tried that command in terminal and it just hangs. It’s been sitting for a couple minutes with no output as of the time of typing this.

open your terminal and copy and paste the following

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

Close terminal then open Driver Manager and install latest nVidia drivers then reboot

I tried it and it didn’t do anything, but that may be due to the fact that I can’t shut down (separate issue in another thread).

The restart issue is solved (thanks!), and the Nvidia drivers are running. The touchpad, however, still doesn’t work.

OK, tried a half dozen solutions like the one posted above (all editing the grub in the same spot); no dice on any of them. Any other ideas?

Drivers needed for Ubuntu, ASUS zenbook and SIIG docking station

I’m new to linux/ubuntu, and I recently purchased an external SIIG docking station and a ASUS zenbook. Booting into an 18.04.1 LTS desktop install on the laptop, two driver issues are evident: 1) the touchpad right-click is not working with the current ubuntu distro provided driver and 2) the driver loading for USB-C (USB 3.1) from the distro only works with the keyboard and mouse through the SIIG docking station. Yes, I’ve googled linux driver issues although I just want to quickly research (not jump into non-free db update apt-get etc) if drivers are available for these two devices someplace else (community? non-free?). Or do I log the issues with the Ubuntu community for these bugs? Since the distro drivers do seem to recognize the devices, but are only partially functional for both. I’m having difficulty even identifying what the touch-pad device/manufacturer is on the ASUS zenbook so not even sure where to start/how to research a driver for this guy: ASUS ZenBook UX430UN UltraBook Laptop:
https://www.asus.com/Laptops/ASUS-ZenBook-UX430UN/HelpDesk_Download/ Docking station info:
SIIG USB docking station:
http://www.siig.com/download/search/?keyword=JU-DK0411-S1 I whiped the Ubuntu install and now I am functional with a Windows10Pro host boot, everything works, but I’ve had to resort to Ubuntu in a virtualbox VM — this is definitely sub optimal. I’m trying to make the full switch over to linux and I want Windows in the guest VM — so really appreciate any help here.
