The trackpad on a Lenovo Ideapad 330 is an ELAN061E, which seems to have been added to the Linux kernel, but doesn’t show up in a Tumbleweed install. Is there something I can do to get it to be recognized?
What makes you think it doesn’t get detected?

I have not seen it detected when trying to activate a touchpad, but if there is some specific command you want me to try to find it I can do that.
Actually, the trackpad device is unlikely to be connected to the USB or PCI buses. Instead, such devices are usually connected to i2c bus (or i8042-type controller).
It should be reported in the kernel boot messaging…
dmesg |egrep "input|i8042"
and libinput should also enumerate it along with its capabilities…
libinput list-devices
You can see I also did plug in a regular USB mouse at the end here:

You could try booting with the kernel option hinted at by including it in the grub boot options
i8042.nopnp
Then see if the touchpad is detected again.
I also stumbled across this while researching online…
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1049787/lenovo-ideapad-330-touchpad-not-working
i8042.nopnp
I tried this, it had no effect. 
I did see that other link, but compiling a custom kernel seemed a bit daunting to me, especially with instructions for a different flavor of Linux. I did find this where it appears to have already made it into the Linux kernel: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/pull/616
Hi
Can build a kernel module for you to test until it arrives upstream?
Hi
Kernel module build here;
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:malcolmlewis:TESTING/elan_i2c
Grab the rpm and manually install;
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/malcolmlewis:/TESTING/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/elan_i2c-kmp-default-4.19.5_k4.19.5_1-1.1.x86_64.rpm
That worked! Thank you so much!
Hi
Excellent 
Now the bad news… (well not really), you will need to visit the repo and grab the updated rpm that matches your kernel if/when Tumbleweed gets a new kernel… the older kernel module will keep working (will go into weak-updates) until you update. You will need to keep an eye on that kernel link to see when/how it gets accepted into the mainline kernel.
On that laptop, I actually added your Repo and installed it that way, it should stay updated that way, right?
Hi
It will, but it’s my testing repo and wouldn’t want you to suck anything down unexpectedly 
Disable, then after kernel update, enable, update the kmp and then disable again would be my recommendation.
There can also be a delay until it gets updated, since home repositories are down the pecking order when it comes to build requirements.
Hello Malcolm.
I’m having the same issue as lex with the lenovo trackpad and would very much like to get your RPM since compiling a kernel is, for now, above my level of proficiency. However, the link doesn’t work. The link to the kernel module build works fine. Any help would be appreciated
If you go into Yast and add Malcolm’s testing repository by this URL:
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/malcolmlewis:/TESTING/openSUSE_Tumbleweed
And then search for ELAN, you can add it that way.
Hi All
This KMP is not needed now as ELAN061E is merged into the current kernel (4.19.11).
I try to get a work of touchpad Elan1200 on the notebook ASUS VivoBook X505ZA-BQ422 with now installed Leap 15 instead Endless.
Is it will be posible after upgrate to kernel 4.19.11?
(by a way In Endless the touchpad works, but I didn’t check kernel version there).
Hi
Can you start a new thread on your issue as this thread is/was about Tumbleweed. Looks like the above fixes where backported to the Leap kernel, so sounds like your issue may be different.
I’m sorry. I’ll start a new thread. Thank You.
