Ahh. Actually xinput now (with kubuntu-desktop installed) now has
registered my touchpad as a standard mouse it seems (I don't have
multitouch functionality, so no two-finger scrolling, etc).
$ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech MX Master id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech K800 id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Jabra Link 370 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Integrated Camera: Integrated C id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ ThinkPad Extra Buttons id=15 [slave keyboard (3)]

As can be seen from this:

So for me the only viable workaround is still to use the nouveau-drivers

Title:
Synaptic touchpad not responding in ubuntu 19.04 when using nvidia
drivers
Status in xserver-xorg-input-libinput package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
On a Lenovo Thinkpad P50 with a Synaptics touchpad, the touchpad (or
trackpoint), does not respond to any input after installing ubuntu 19.04.
The same machine has been working fine with ubuntu 16.04 and 18.10. To
be more correct it is still working in 16.04 hwe which I'm dual
booting.
If I uninstall the nvidia drivers (right now 418.56-0ubuntu1), and
replace with noveau drivers it works just fine (by the way there seems
to be no other issues with the nvidia driver as of yet).
I have also the nvidia-driver-390 also suggested in the graphical
software updates tool, to no avail.
I will attach relevant logs. Please let me know if there is more I should
supply.
And thanks for all your hard (and brilliant) work.
