You seem to have a different issue than the known Thinkpad series. In
your dmesg, there is no "psmouse serio1: elantech: Trying to set up
SMBus access", which indicates that your touchpad (ELAN0501) is
directly bound to elan_i2c.

So can you?:
- provide an evemu-record of your touchpad when using it (package
evemu in  most distributions)
- tell us if the touchpad used to work, and if so, which kernel version it was.

Cheers,
Benjamin
