Haaglin,
it is correct that there is no module i8042, since its functionality is
compiled into the kernel. therefore you successfully used a kernel option.
In Ubuntu 10.04 it should work out of the box, as upstream reportet.

I found out, it's compiled into ubuntu's kernel. So someone would need to add
this to his kernel option line.
Since I am new to grub2, I might try later (just saw it can be appended by
using dpkg-reconfigure).

modinfo i8042 should tell you if you have such a module. There is none
in Karmic.

Upstream they say this:
On older kernels the problem can be worked around with i8042.nomux
option.
What does this mean please? Is it a module to be loaded with this
option?

Found another way to activate it again:
After disabling the pad, enable it with the same button so the light goes off,
and run this:
#sudo modprobe -r psmouse modprobe psmouse

OK, from the fdo but we now know for sure this is a kernel bug. Can you
open a bug at bugzilla.kernel.org please (and include a link to the
closed fdo bug so they understand that the bug is known to be in the
kernel).

** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xfree86-driver-synaptics
System: Acer Aspire 5738G
On this model, the button to en-/disable the touchpad has moved from
FN+F7 to an extra key. With this key on Ubuntu 9.04, you can switch the
touchpad off - BUT NOT ON AGAIN.
I get
Did so. Thanks for the guide.
It's just somewhat annoying to register for so many different platforms.

Hi,
@Martin
There is nothing to attach since there is no output. I compared to
/var/log/messages, but the last thing I get is -- mark --.

Thanks for posting the laptop testing profile.
Can you attach the output of dmesg and find /dev/input please?
Also, what is S3 ?

Hi,
thanks for your quick reply.
S3 is another term for Suspend to RAM. S1 would be blank screen. Most
BIOSes will just say S3 or S2R for suspend to ram.
Input folder looks same before and after en-/disabling.
I found out, that the light on the touchpad button is on, if touchpad is
switched

Once the touchpad is no longer working, can you make it work by running
modprobe -r psmouse; modprobe psmouse ?

Hey!
Thanks Martin, that works - I can then press the button, the LED is off
and the touchpad works. So maybe some1 could take a look at psmouse's
source?
So now that we know the reason, how can I/we debug and fix it? Is there
some way to enable debugging?
Regards and many thanks for helping!
FYI: The code for the PS/2 mouse driver is available here:

If you want to see what kinds of options this kernel module has, run modinfo
@bmhm, can you please attach the output of xmodmap -pk ?

Hi,
what a handy command! :-)
Here you are.
There is no debug parmameter in my version, nor is there a -dbg-Package.
There is also no debug switch in the source code you linked to.
