Hello,
I just installed openSUSE Leap 42.1 on Asus X555UB-BRA-XX274T and the touchpad is not working, I searched on web and I found no solution for my problem.
Someone have a similar laptop and solved this?
Thanks
Welcome to openSUSE Forums. Now we need to do a bit of digging. 
Open a terminal and do
/usr/sbin/hwinfo --mouse
Report back with the output. Then run
cat /proc/bus/input/devices
and do the same. That information will help us determine what input hardware has been detected/recognised. Please use CODE tags when posting this output. It’s the '# 'button in the forum editor. Enclose the output within the CODE tags. Hopefully, someone can then assist you further.
Based on this askubuntu.com question using a newer kernel (4.3+) might do the trick here. Here’s how you could do that
sudo zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard/ kernel
sudo zypper ref
sudo zypper dup -r kernel
then reboot. Hopefully, with the upgraded kernel you’ll end up with a working touchpad.

I’m using an usb mouse. Thanks for your reply.
Thanks for your reply deano_ferrari, I’ll try this ASAP.
This update crashed my grub. After reboot the grub can’t start kernel with the message:
You need to load kernel first
.
The output your provided shows that the device is not detected, so a kernel upgrade is your best course of action here. Let us know how you get on.
I tried again and got the same error after installing kernel 4.8.0-1.g55165a4-default:
You need to load kernel first
I’m booting the system with old kernel (4.1).
Sorry, my mistake about kernel bug, I was with “secure boot” enabled, just disable this option on BIOS and kernel works fine.
Touchpad working fine too
