ELAN1200 - "Asus Precision Touchpad" - not working

Hello all,

I have followed all the forum's advice and I still cannot get my touchpad for my Gentoo Linux system on Asus gaming laptop GL503 VD.

After installing Gentoo with 4.17.9 Kernel, I am able to boot to an Xorg screen using TWM and the 'intel' driver.
However, the trackpad is at a standstill.
Additionally, my sytem does not detect the trackpad (lspci, lshw, xinput, or libinput)

I upgraded to kernel 5.1.3 and selected all HID, Synaptics, Elan, I2C options, yet it still will not detect.

Windoze gives me this, under properties of "Asus Precision Touchpad" --
Device HID\ELAN1200&Col02\5&35adf766&0&0001

Any ADVICE for a semi-beginner with Linux and Gentoo?

Thanks!

MjSmed :cry:
