Hello
I have exactly same problem in Ubuntu 19.04 and Toughbook CF-19
5.0.0-16-generic
Because touchpad is detected as mouse i'm unable disable click while touching 
touchpad (i want use only hardware keys) 
This is make so hard to use, slightly touch while moving finger cause text to 
be selected or item to be selected and moved... that make word processing or 
simple tasks very inefficient.

I know it's a Year old bug report, but maybe some updates?
Maybe some dirty fix?
just to disable clicking by touch of touchpad?


I would greatly appreciate fix.

Regards

Title:
  Touchpad incorrectly being detected by kernel as PS/2 mouse

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The touchpad in the Panasonic Toughbook CF-30 (specifically CF-30K,
  also known as "CF30", "CF30-3", "CF-30 Mk3", "CF-30 Mark 3", etc) is
  being detected as only a generic PS/2 mouse, not a touchpad of any
  kind.

  Pointing and clicking (also tapping to click) works, but scrolling
  doesn't work -- and there is no touchpad options in the relevant
  control panel, only pointer speed.

  This appears to be happening in the kernel, not in X.
