uname -a: Linux mv8 3.11.0-15-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 9 18:17:04 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux What is it about the latest dev release / kernel that you believe will fix this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896922 Title: Lenovo L520 - "psmouse.c: touchpad at isa0060/serio4/input0 lost sync" and stops working for seconds Status in The Linux Kernel: New Status in xf86-input-synaptics: New Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since Maverick, when using the touchpad, it's often not working and stucks for seconds, in short, it is unusesable. This bug still happens in Ubuntu 11.10 on a Lenovo L520 with 3.0.0-13-generic. Its a Synaptics touchpad, maybe it's kernel bug.
