I have an Acer M5 481T and I have the exact same problem. The only way to make it work is by pressing Fn+F7 before log in otherwise my touchpad doesn't work at all. The ubuntu live cd doesn't work so I had to install the latest version of ubuntu (12.10) with an external mouse. If there is a solution to this problem, please let us know!
