Hi Frank,

For touchpad, please try installing xserver-xorg-input-synaptics.  
You also miss the wireless driver or what does “wireless device” mean?

For wifi you may need the firmware-iwlwifi non-free (proprietary, closed source, binary firmware for Intel WiFi chips) package, which is not installed by default on Debian based systems.  
[https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firmware-iwlwifi](https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firmware-iwlwifi)

For info on the APS touchpad/trackpoint and Debian 9+ (stretch):

Libinput is not recommended atm, as it has some issueswith Plasma 5.8.x.  
When those are fixed, we will ship it default again.
