UPDATE: OK, so routing around some more articles about similar problems, I found this:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1041820/touchpad-not-working-on- ubuntu-18-04 The first answer in the article gives me a partial solution where I can get the touchpad back working again mid-session: sudo rmmod i2c_hid sudo modprobe i2c_hid However, their suggestion to update the GRUB with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="i8042.reset quiet splash" does not improve the bug at boot, in fact to makes it worse where the touchpad is dead upon every reboot I have tested over the last 20 minutes. Note: I am still upsing @Kai-Heng's latest 5.4 kernel. Hopefully this information might add something to the next step in discovering a solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884288 Title: LapBook Pro touchpad (HTIX5288:00) sometimes does not work when machine is restarted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1884288/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
