I have exactly the same problem with my clevo p150em notebook. (no
movement, scrolling still possible) It's quite frustrating. It happened
several time while I was watching youtube videos, but the reason for

Hi there.
I believe I experience the same problem. Here is what happened:
I clicked on a tab in Chromium, and it got stuck with a right-click menu. I
thought it was X and I had to reboot, but I used a USB mouse instead, and
everything works fine.
The touchpad still doesn't work, the pointer
Oh, by the way, I am using a Samsung N310, with Ubuntu 12.10 up to date with
proposed.
Sorry about the numerous comments.

I just tried the console workaround, which worked perfectly. Back to normal.
If it happens again, I will try the suspend workaround.

touchpad and releasing it should be like a mouse click) -- simply

@Ivan, the nvec message look normal. Btw, you can get rid of the page
allocation failure message by increasing the min_free_kbytes in
/proc/something, but this is neither critical nor tp related.
I also experienced the tp stuck in two finger mode problem when using

it's possible that all problems are fixable by finding out the right synaptics

xinput --list-props ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad
will give you a list of tuneable parameters. Don't ask me which one to choose.

This happened again for me (when I was using Firefox), and switching to
the linux console (terminal) (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back (Ctrl-Alt-F7) did
help. (Thanks for the hint!)
Each time I switch back to X, a message in the log appears:

Today I noticed that although the touchpad appeared to be not working
completely (no pointer movements, and the pointer in X disappeared), it
must still be working physically because there was a reaction for the
scrolling gesture (gliding up and down at the right side of the touchpad

What can I do to help solve this problem?

You
first make sure that there are no nvec related message in dmesg by doing
a dmesg|grep nvec.
The TP is known to be crappy hw. So you may sometimes loose connection
but it will restart after some time. But I never noticed that the
buttons or scroll wheel emulation still works. Will check this next
make sure you didnt accidentially press F9 ... that key is hardwired to
power off the touchpad (nothing you can do against this in software)

@ogra: Thaqnks, I'll pay attention to the F9 key (it's the one with a
touchpad on/touchpad off sign on it).

@marvin24: thanks for your comment!
And what does it mean if there are nvec-related messages in dmesg?
I don't understand what nvec is, and what its relation to the touchpad
is.

Here is a report of this issue to the synaptics X.org package in Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-
synaptics/+bug/1037586
And a very similar (according to the description) old report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-
At least, in the *tail* of overall dmesg that I have attached (which is
some while after this issue occured) there are no nvec-related messages.
But maybe the moment when the touchpad stopped working was already cut
off in dmesg.
There are quite a lot of page allocation failure messages there.
It just happened right now. I've saved dmesg output and the X's log.
(Attaching them.)
There are no nvec messages in dmesg. But there are two ec messages.
Are they important?
I've checked once again the behavior of the touchpad when this happens:
movements don't work,
but scrolling doe work (at

I've found a workaround: put the system into standby mode, and upon the

Perhaps, you'll find something in my dmesg.
It happened about an hour before I'm submitting this bug report (right
before I attached an external USB mouse, which you can see in the
dmesg).
