Hey !
First I'm sorry if my English is bad
I installed Archlinux on my HP Probook x360 g1 11 EE (I think It's not useless to specify it because he's known to (I don't know if it's the good word ) to block the installation of Grub, I needed to install Windows next to Archlinux for use Windows boot manager to start rEFInd, without Windows Boot Manager it says I haven't OS, and I'm not the only person who have a problem with this PC).
So, my touchpad doesn't works on Archlinux, but it work on Windows / bios.
I've already install xf86-input-synaptics and copy it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf but it doesn't do anything.
Here's the result of
dmesg | grep -i Synaptics
[ 5.900249] psmouse serio1: elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 0x10, 0x15, 0x0c.

One's said to me to add
i8042.noloop i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.reset
in rEFInds 'settings, so my /boot/refind_linux.conf is
"Boot with standard options" "ro root=PARTUUID=(l'uuid) rw quiet splash i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop"
And the Archlinux part of /boot/EFI/refind/refind/refind.conf
menuentry "Arch Linux" {
icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_arch.png
volume "Arch Linux"
loader /boot/vmlinuz-linux
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img
options "root=/dev/sda1 rw quiet splash i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop"
submenuentry "Boot using fallback initramfs" {
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img
}
submenuentry "Boot to terminal" {
add_options "systemd.unit=multi-user.target"
}
disabled
}
PS : I can use a mouse and my touchscreen, but I need the touchpad, it's not useless
PPS : When I go to the touchpad settings, it says I haven't any touchpad.
If you need more things don't hesitate to ask them to me
Thanks !
Have a good day, or Have a nice day, I don't know x)

First of all, please note that xf86-input-synaptics is no longer actively developed . You should use libinput instead. Also, you can try to reload the psmouse module with proto=imps:
# modprobe -r psmouse
# modprobe psmouse proto=imps
This should make it work again, but without multitouch gestures, sadly . I've got the same problem, I'll insert a link your message into my post and vice-versa to avoid having two same subjects.
PS: Are you using loRdi? If so, you can install GRUB without any problem. This guide can help you (worked for me, even if now I rather check the wiki).

Oooh my bad, thank you very much It's work I feel... stupid
And yes I used loRdi, but when I executed "efibootmgr" I always had an error (i don't remember it), but when I want to install ubuntu / lubuntu [...] the install always crash at the grub installation
On other PC I never have any problems, it's only on this PC.
Do you use the same PC ?
And thanks Again <3
EDIT : It's work but it's "stop to work" after reboot x) I'm going to create a script for execute command after starting x)

Yes, I use it as well (but with only arch). Don't think my solution is a real solution, it's just a workaround before I get a real solution. And don't create a startup script. It's a dirty solution. The best is to tell the kernel to load module psmouse with proto=imps instead of without. So you need to create a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ called psmouse.conf and write inside of it "options psmouse proto=imps":
sudo echo 'options psmouse proto=imps' > /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse.conf
Then you are done
EDIT:Corrected the error optionS instead of option. Thanks.

Creating file /etc/modprobe.d/elan.conf with "elantech_smbus=0 synaptics_intertouch=0" restored everything for me (now my touchpad is recognized by KDE system configurator, I've got multitouch and my old configuration back), making my workaround deprecated. You can remove it
