I have an ASUS Zenbook UX433,on which ASUS decided to innovate by embedding a Numpad inside the touchpad (see picture 
).
Toggling between classic touchpad mode and numpad (also turns the touchpad LEDs on) can be done through the golden button in the top-right corner of the touchpad.
However, on my Manjaro arch Linux config, this behavior does not work by default and I can only use the touchpad, no numpad.
**Has anyone been able to configure the numpad to work on Linux, or have any idea how this could be achieved?**
EDIT1: I have had a look at the [official Windows drivers for the UX433FA TouchPad](https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/DriversForWin10/TouchPad/Touchpad_ASUS_Win10_64_VER120014.zip) , but was not able to make anything of it. I tried installing them on Linux using tools like NDISWrapper, but they do not detect the TouchPad/Numpad hardware, and my understanding of drivers is too limited.
