"Screen" trackpad

Hello everyone,

I recently got a computer (Asus UX5400E). I'm very happy with it and XFCE works great for most of what I want.
There's however one glitch and I was wondering if someone could propose a solution.
The computer comes with a weird feature - the trackpad has a small screen behind it.
As it's not very well supported on Linux, and as I want to save battery life, I have it disabled plain and simple (in display settings).
It works fine until the computer goes to sleep - but when waking up, the screen behind the trackpad becomes active again.
Also, when booting and selecting a session (I use SDDM) the trackpad screen is always active - I'd like it to be disabled as early as possible.

This is the result of `lspci`:

Re: "Screen" trackpad

Is there a way to disable it in your bios or via a hotkey?
