I got today a new Xiaomi MI Air with the idea of removing Windows and using Linux Deepin on it. The first impression when I was installing it was that the mousepad wasn't working but I could install it thanks to the tab button. When I logged into the OS after the installation, I could use a mouse to surf the GUI.
Mousepad isnt working even thought I have tried so many things like using a Live CD of Fedora (in order to see if it was a computer problem or just with this distro) and in there it worked, changing some options in the grub file...

I found this on Internet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection and I think that the solution has to be really similar because deepin is based on ubuntu. My error path is: 1) My touchpad doesnt work at all 2) If I connect a mouse it works, so it's a kernel problem. The 3 files I get when I complete everything are:

Devices + dmesg + Xorg.0.log

the link here http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=130150 describes how to solve similar problem on asus laptop with deepin os in it. i tried to update the kernel of my xiaomi air 12.5 to linux-image-4.7.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 according to the article. after reboot the touchpad was recognised. however, it's very unstable and causing the laptop to freeze several times. not yet tried to do the '# apt install linux-image-amd64/jessie-backports'.
for the meantime, i reinstalled the deepin and try to find another solution. i hope deepin developer update the kernel soon.

i tried to use tpconfig to detect the touchpad and it seems the touchpad is there. But it's not even showed up in xinput.

$ sudo tpconfig -D

Finally, updating to kernel 4.4.0.3 Deepin solved the issue. Thank you Deepin developer!
