Title:
After installing Ubuntu 12.04 my laptop touchpad randomly stops
responding
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In the past I have seen similar issues with this laptop when not
turning off the option to disable touchpad while typing, however with
12.04 this still occurs even when that option is turned off.
Essentially what happens is the mouse (touchpad) will be working fine
and then suddenly just stop responding. Keyboard input still responds
correctly. Logging in/out does not fix the issue, a full restart seems
to be required.
Please let me know if there is any additional information I can
provide to get this fixed. As you can imagine it is very
frustrating/annoying and sometimes even leads to lost data.
