I got a new Asus G752VY-RH71 and installed Kubuntu 16.10 on it. I've also tested with Linux Mint 18 KDE and Mageia (sp?) and had the same issue, so it's not distro-specific. My Elan touchpad is detected, driver elan_i2c is loaded and does function to some degree, but is detected as a ClickPad when it is not, and as a result it seems the right button is entirely not detected and consequently does not function. I've tried a few things to make it work, including modifying the elan_i2c code and recompiling it, and I've manually overridden the driver to set ClickPad to false, but I have yet to see any indication that Linux recognizes the right button even exists. xinput ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Sunrex/JME Ghost Key Elimiantion Keyboard id=11 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ASUS Tech Inc.

I've installed mainline kernels v4.10 / v4.9.12 / v4.8.17 / v4.4.51 and tried to boot my Ubuntu 17.04 with each one of them, but Elan touchpad (completely dead) and Fn keys continue not working on my ASUS G752VS laptop. Kernel developer who in the past solved Elan touchpad issues on my previous two ASUS laptops told me that this time he unfortunately can't help me because my current problem is something with the elan_i2c driver.

Same problem as aljosa@cromalternativemoney.org, fn keys not working and touchpad without any response, cursor, buttons click, anything. I've got to add I didn't manage to make keyboard backlight working too. Tried daily builds of Ubuntu 17.04 (The last to date, for instance), kernel 4.10.13, didn't work either. Also, I had had experimented with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS kernels 4.4 and 4.8, with all of these problems unresolved too.
I think you should attach to this bug all possibly relevant files for the 4.10.13 kernel . See my bug #194719 for such listing.

I've created a new bug for the touchpad, keyboard backling and fn keys and provided the files following the logic of aljosa which I saw is very similar to Martin Mokrejs since I'm not familiar with gentoo. This is the bug <a class="bz_bug_link" href="https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195027">Bug #195027</a>
I have been informed that there are people (Chris Chiu and Daniel Drake) working on ASUS ROG models, and their patches are already slated to be released with kernel 4.12: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git/log/?h=for-4.12/asus Unfortunately I'm not able to apply those patches by myself. It would be great if some of you Linux people affected by "ASUS G752VS - Touchpad and Fn keys" problem can test mentioned patches and enter in contact with Chris and Daniel.
I don't have any input for this issue but the one thing that springs to mind, as a potential clue, we once saw an Asus model where the left and right button clicks were swapped, and it was fixed upstream with this commit: commit 594312b88b0f451912c964c7ff2c0eaa71ad41b4 Author: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@redhat.com> Date: Fri Nov 25 11:08:10 2016 +0100 HID: multitouch: handle external buttons for Precision Touchpads
I early trying 4.10.0-rc5 - but mouse incorrectly work. In 4.4.38 - touchpad left button work 50/50, right button don't work.
