I recently installed the newest stable release of Ubuntu on my ASUS F550LN and I can't get the touch pad to work. Well, it works for a single split-second once every 10 seconds circa. I can also use a mouse, but only to move the cursor, I can't click at all.
I am fairly new to Linux and I would like to be able to use Ubuntu with my touch pad.
I don't know what more to include here, so sorry if there is some important information I am missing.
Thanks in advance.
sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree
This will load firmware (drivers) which are not usually distributed because the source code is not available.
