Tested today--yes, it is still a problem on Precise (Unity session, ThinkPad T420s). Fix in comment #46 works until reboot.

When I log in only trackpad responds. I tried to manualny enable touchpad, but it didnt work (xinput). I also tried alternative software like gpointing-device-settings with no effect. The bug is present in Unity and Gnome 3 desktop. I also tried xfce4 which works fine. In Ubuntu 11.04 in classic gnome i had no problems switching between those devices using fn+f8. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10. --- Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,mousepoll,vpswitch,regex,animation,snap,expo,move,compiztoolbox,place,grid,imgpng,gnomecompat,wall,ezoom,workarounds,staticswitcher,resize,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,scale,session,unityshell] DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release amd64 (20101007.1) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: unity 4.0.1-0ubuntu3 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=pl_PL:en PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0-2.3-generic 3.0.0-rc4 Tags: oneiric unity-2d Uname: Linux 3.0-2-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-06-26 (4 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin netdev plugdev sambashare --- Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,decor,mousepoll,vpswitch,regex,animation,snap,expo,move,compiztoolbox,place,grid,imgpng,gnomecompat,wall,ezoom,workarounds,staticswitcher,resize,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,scale,session,unityshell] DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Alpha amd64 (20110702) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: unity 4.0.1-0ubuntu3 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0-2.3-generic 3.0.0-rc4 Tags: oneiric running-unity unity-2d Uname: Linux 3.0-2-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/804109/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
