Hi guys, i am on a custom distro which i created myself and then manually compiled the kernel and used it. I am on an hp440 g8 hp laptop with an ELAN touchpad. Normally after the touchpad is detected by the kernel libinput handles it, but in my case the kernel is not even detecting the touchpad. Here is my dmesg:
$ dmesg | grep -i touchpad
(output: none)
I also have systemd as my init system, here is journalctl -xe (touchpad as argument for grep didnt output anything):
journalctl -xe | grep -i elan
May 06 21:55:15 Hp440G8 kernel: usb 3-7: Product: ELAN:ARM-M4
May 06 21:55:15 Hp440G8 kernel: usb 3-7: Manufacturer: ELAN
that is my mouse, not touchpad.
So the main question is: what kernel config options should i enable? is there any udev rules i need to create?
Ive tried everything related to the touchpad but they did not work. If you know any major kernel config options which work for ELAN touchpads, please tell me.
Thank you in advance
