I also have an AsusGL503VD with an ELAN touchpad listed by xinput as:

ELAN1200:00 04F3:3090 Touchpad

I installed the kernel 4.17.2 by .deb packages availables on ppa ubuntu
kernel mainline (kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/).

The touchpad is detected but cursor freezes and jumps around randomly.
i2c-hid is listed on lsmod and I have tried with the xorg synaptics
touchpad driver (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package) but the weird
behavior remains. Also tried with i8042 and acpi related kernel commands
on the grub config.

Are you getting completely clean operation? can you provide new
diagnostics files, like your lsmod output?

Title:
  ELAN1200 touchpad not working at all with kernel 4.15+; Recognized as
  ITE 8910 keyboard

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Laptop is an Asus-GL503VD

  Touchpad is an ELAN touchpad model 1200.

  This bug is relative to the Asus-GL503VD and any Asus laptop using the
  ELAN1200 touchpad.

  I tried Arch, Debian, Ubuntu 14/16/18, Pop_OS, Sabayon Linux, Fedora.
  Same problem, touchpad is totally unresponsive.

  From what I understand the touchpad is being recognized as a keyboard
  and I cannot get any driver to recognize it: elan-i2c or synaptics.

  The touchpad is also being recognized as a USB device.

  This behaviour was consistent on kernels 4.15.0-22, 4.15.0-23 and 4.17.1.
  Right now trying to make it work on kernel 4.15.0-23 because it seems more 
"main-stream".

  Note: I have a keyboard recognized as AT Translated Set 2 keyboard
  which makes me believe I do not need ITE8910 to be a keyboard.

  Note2: Been researching LKM development. Managed to make a signed 'hello 
world' lkm and make it output in dmesg. Willing to help debug/develop the 
driver for this touchpad.
