I installed Ubuntu on this laptop a couple of weeks ago, so I can't say. But before Ubuntu I was using Fedora 27 for around 2 months and I didn't experience this problem there.
I'm attaching dmesg output after another touchpad incident, from 4.15.1 this time. I hope it helps. It looks like this may have something to do with nouveau, should I try using the proprietary NVIDIA drivers? ** Attachment added: "dmesg2.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1746372/+attachment/5048856/+files/dmesg2.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746372 Title: [Asus K501UQ] Touchpad stops working after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1746372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
