Title:
  20.04 Xorg doesn't detect/load Elantech mouse driver on Lenovo P73

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The installation scripts loads the correct drivers so the touch pad
  and pointer works during the install. However after the install
  neither work.

  I've worked around it by using a wireless USB from Vilros for mouse input while logging in. Then issuing (found on https://askubuntu.com/questions/1143663):
   sudo 'echo -n "elantech">/sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/protocol'

  So it's a bug for me but one I can work around and should be fixed
  before 20.04 goes live.
