These are the symptoms that I have. It happens since ubuntu 16.04 and it affects 2 laptops that I own. Laptop 1 is an asus zenbook core i5 and the other is lenovo B50-50 core i3. Both laptops are less than 1 year old.
Anyhow when ubuntu starts sometimes (lets say 10% of the time) the touchpad does not work. I login without using the mouse. Then I go into sleep mode by pressing the power button and close the lid for a few seconds. When I re-open it, the screen comes back to life with the logon prompt and usually the touchpad is working again. Sometime I have to repeat this procedure a couple of times before it starts working - basically the way I see it this procedure forces the driver to re- initialise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1576844 Title: Touchpad/Trackpad freezes then eventually unfreezes (repeatedly) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1576844/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
