Note: Bug is still alive in october 2015 - that is nearly 25 months old ! == My config Fully up to date 14.04. Nvidia GTX 950M + Integrated Intel Asus ROG G551J Elantech Touchpad
== Elantech Touchpad, the common hardware After seeking on the net, I've find (here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/766166/elantech-touchpad-related-nvidia-driver-freeze/) that many people who experience the bug have an Elantech Touchpad and are using the synaptics drivers. To check if you're in the same situation: $ cat /sys/class/input/mouse0/device/name ->> ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad == Proposed workaround It seems that the following workaround works, although I can't promise anything. We are however all expecting that NVidia developers fix their drivers properly. $ sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-{your-flavour} $ sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-mtrack-{your-flavour} Hope you're doing better with that solution ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220426 Title: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1220426/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
