Public bug reported:

file:
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

contains the text:
# causes failure to suspend on HP compaq nc6000 (Ubuntu: #10306)
blacklist i2c_i801

note: actually the correct LP id appears to be
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/16602

after short discussion at
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kmod/+question/269329 I'm
raising this as a bug

as well as preventing trackpad detection in the case of Acer C710, there
is an older bug open at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857175. Here
this same blacklist entry breaks some functionality for a Thinkpad T41.
In turn, that bug includes a reference to another source
(http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.i2c/9120) where the
blacklist entry has required support effort.
