Thanks for the instructions. So I added the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pci=nocrs" and updated grub. I rebooted the machine at least five times and the touchpad never worked - I had to use an external mouse. This is a bit different in a sense that this seems to be consistent whereas usually the touchpad completely randomly works every now and then.
I think I will keep the settings as they are just to see if the touchpad randomly starts to work again. I mean the position of the moon might have an effect on this ;-) Let me know if I can be of any help in further testing. Btw, my kernel was just updated to 5.8.0-55-generic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878279 Title: MSFT0004:00 06CB:CD98 Touchpad/trackpad mouse randomly not recognized from any given boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1878279/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
