Hello,

   I recently purchased an Acer Aspire One (model A0275-0691). It has an 
elantech touchpad. As detailed in this bug: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848270 the acer-wmi driver 
has two issues on this device.

#1) It is sending TOUCHPAD_TOGGLE and simultaneously changing state
#2) It disables the touchpad at init

It should apparently be doing neither of those. If I boot with acer-wmi 
blacklisted the touchpad works perfectly, all other Fn+key combos work 
other than brightness control.
