Public bug reported: >From time to time the touchpad stops working, usually noticed by the cursor >'freezing' This has affected a number of users. At least here & for some others disabling the option "Disable touchpad while typing" has apparently stopped this from happening, though due to the sporadic nature can't say for 100% sure. (tested here for 3 days, no occurrences
For 2 days now have been enabling the option thru syncdaemon instead & again have seen no occurrences though for me 2 days might not be a long enough test frame Using this which differs slightly from that used in g-s-d ( no -R option, -k instead of -K syndaemon -d -k -i 0.5s ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.2.0-0ubuntu5 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-13.21~lp844957v1-generic 3.0.6 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-13-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu3 Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Oct 12 10:24:00 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Beta i386 (20111007.1) SourcePackage: gnome-settings-daemon UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 oneiric running-unity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872885 Title: Synaptics touchpad randomly stops working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/872885/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
