I have a HP Pavilion x360 convertible 15 br0xx. This laptop has a multitouch touchscreen and an active pen/stylus (non-wacom).



On ubuntu 16.04, the touchscreen used with fingers and the pen/stylus work properly. The touchscreen was identified as «ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8» as slave pointer and the pen as «ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 Pen» as slave pointer too.



But, on ubuntu 18.04 bionic with gnome shell, the pen/stylus is identified «ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 Pen» as slave keyboard instead as slave pointer. Touchscreen work well until pen/stylus is used. At this point, a new device «ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 Pen Pen (0)» is added to pointers list. The touchscreen stops working and the pen/styles works but with some issues.



~$ xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=15 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 Pen Pen (0) id=18 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HP Wide Vision HD Camera: HP Wi id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Intel Virtual Button driver id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Intel Virtual Button driver id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=14 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HP WMI hotkeys id=16 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HP Wireless hotkeys id=17 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ ELAN0732:00 04F3:24B8 Pen id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]


After disable devices id=11 and id=18, touchscreen recovers its multitouch feature.
There is no combination enabling/disabling ids 10, 11 and 18, to get multitouch and pen working together.



On Wayland session, I get the same behavior.



How to recover the ubuntu 16.04 configuration for this devices?



Note: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS clean installation with «minimal install option» and no other customisation.
