I know this question has expired, but since I searched around and found
the solution I thought I'd share it for those who are still searching. I
know it's not the best way, but it works.
To enable the Touchpad you'll need to do the following from terminal:
1. sudo nano /etc/rc.local
2. Add the following line before the exit command. (sudo bash -c 'echo 1 >
/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/reg_07')
3. press CTRL+O then press Enter.
this will enable the touch-pad on start-up but it might stop working
when suspended and/or hibernated. a workaround for this is:
1. sudo nano /etc/pm/sleep.d/sr-enable
and copy the following to the file
#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
suspend)
;;
resume)
sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/reg_07'
;;
*)
;;
esac
3. press CTRL+O then press Enter.
4. sudo nano /etc/pm/sleep.d/ht-enable
5. again copy this
#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
hibernate)
# executed on suspend
;;
thaw)
sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/reg_07' #
executed on resume
;;
*)
;;
esac
6. press CTRL+O then press Enter.
7. then (sudo chmod +x /etc/pm/sleep.d/ht-enable && sudo chmod +x
/etc/pm/sleep.d/sr-enable)
8. then issue the following command ( sudo update-initramfs -u -k all )
