When a 400KHz freq is used on this model of ELAN touchpad in Linux, excessive smoothing (similar to when the touchpad's firmware detects a noisy signal) is sometimes applied. As some devices' (e.g, Lenovo V15 G4) ACPI tables do not specify a frequency for this device and some I2C busses (e.g, Designware I2C) default to a 400KHz freq, force the speed to 100KHz as a workaround. This problem may be related to the default HCNT/LCNT values given by some busses' drivers, because they are also not specified in the aforementioned devices' ACPI tables, and because the device works at what appears to be a 400KHz frequency in Windows without issues.
