Fail during install

[itped]

Hello, I am getting an error message that I do not know how to deal with. It seems that some driver is not being recognized and because of that the dev-attach.sh script fails. I have an UX501VW. I appreciate your help! Please let me know if you need more infos.

Under xinput list I can see your Touchpad is listed as Elan Touchpad. So I suspect your laptop is using a different Touchpad.

To confirm - please run:

basename `ls -d /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/i2c_hid/i*`

If you using a Touchpad supported by this driver - you will get the output of: i2c-FTE1001:00

[itped]

There isn't any file starting with the i in /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/i2c_hid folder:

basename `ls -d /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/i2c_hid/i*`
ls: cannot access '/sys/bus/i2c/drivers/i2c_hid/i*': No such file or directory
basename: missing operand
Try 'basename --help' for more information

I am using xf86-input-libinput driver.

[redmcg]

I believe you have an ElanTech Touchpad. This is not supported by our driver. You can run:

basename `ls -d /sys/bus/acpi/devices/{FT*,EL*} 2> /dev/null`

to confirm.

The ElanTech devices usually begin with ELAN

[itped]

Yeah, you are right. I've got an ELAN driver. Thanks a lot for your help!
