P52:
"cat /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/firmware_id":
PNP: LEN2132 PNP0f13

Confirming a fresh install of ubuntu 18.10 works yields a fully functional 
touchpad but updating (tested with current kernel 4.18.0-12-generic) renders 
the touchpad unusable.
Issuing "sudo sh -c 'echo -n "elantech"> 
/sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/protocol'" restores the trackpads functionality 
for the current session as already described.

"dmesg | grep -i elan" yields:
[    3.167455] psmouse serio1: elantech: assuming hardware version 4 (with 
firmware version 0x5f2001)
[    3.179490] psmouse serio1: elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result

[    4.048168] elan_i2c: probe of 0-0015 failed with error -5

after echoing "elantech", dmesg shows
[ 2185.669979] input: ETPS/2 Elantech TrackPoint as 
/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input17
[ 2185.683258] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as 
/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input16
instead of the former last three lines.
