The "except for scrolling" phrase from ThomasNovin really caught my
attention because, on two laptops using xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
1.5.99.902, I have seen the touchpad become inoperable except for
scrolling.  I have both configured for two-finger scrolling, and when
this happens, it switches to 'one-finger scrolling' with no way to move
the pointer position.  Sometimes it is fixed with "sudo modprobe -r
psmouse; sleep 2; sudo modprobe psmouse" but sometimes this crashes Xorg
(back to login screen).  What is different, however, is that rather than
happening at resume, it happens randomly, perhaps more during high CPU
usage.

It seems to me that the 'one-finger scrolling' is a different bug.
