Lenovo 14 Trackpad Doesn't Work

[scotty65]

I wonder if this might be helpful, as the Lenovo 82A2 Yoga Slim 7 14ARE05 also uses an Elan touchpad:

ELAN Touchpad not working in KDE

So I have been browsing the Arch Wiki and saw this: Touchpad The touchpad does not work to begin with. It may work initially with libinput or synaptics, but only sometimes. The touchpad can be seen registered either as Elan Touchpad or ELAN0634:00 04F3:3124 in the Xorg logs. Since the touchpad only works, when it is seen registered as ELAN0634:00 04F3:3124 in the Xorglogs, the touchpad works quite randomly, but not consistently. To circumvent this, one has to blacklist the elan_i2c kernel mod…

Edit: I just saw that you are using Gnome, not KDE, but hopefully the above solution might still apply.
