    I would love to use Linux on my laptop but the touchpad isn’t recognised and only has windows drivers :( i have tried so much stuff but it didnt work out. My desktop is mostly for gaming so windows makes more sense.

        it’s an HP based on ryzen. the ID is “HP 15s-eq1706nz” I tried looking for info on internet and asking in a few forums but the model does not seem popular and HP wont provide linux drivers. I tried a lot of stuff like editing configs and such but nothing worked. The interesting thing is that when booting from a live USB, the touchpad works perfectly but after installing it isn’t even recognised.
