Trackpad non-functional on x360 hp pavilion laptop

tn flag

I am using an x360 hp pavilion laptop, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, kernel version (from uname -r) is 5.8.0-55-generic.

sudo dmidecode | grep -A3 '^System Information'

System Information
    Manufacturer: HP
    Product Name: HP Pavilion x360 Convertible 14m-dw1xxx
    Version: 

The touchpad is completely unresponsive, however, the keyboard works just fine. I have ran sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-all. The output of xinput is as follows:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad                  id=8    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ BT5.1 Mouse                               id=9    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                     id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard               id=5    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ HP Wide Vision HD Camera: HP Wi           id=6    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard              id=7    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Indy Fuel (AVRCP)                         id=10   [slave  keyboard (3)]

As suggested here, I have edited /etc/default/grub to contain quiet splash acpi=off, with no effect. If there is any relevant information that I have forgot to include, please tell me. (Currently using a bluetooth mouse.)

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
