Touchpad on Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1JQ not detected by the kernel


I just updated my Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1JQ running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
When I checked /proc/bus/input/devices to see if the kernel had picked up my trackpad I got this:
Code:

note the lack of a trackpad.
I'm running linux-5.11.0-41-generic

Thanks.

Is the touchpad device disabled? Check the following advice first...

Thanks for the update. Good that it was just a case of enabling the device as suspected.
