Matt White, as per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an update to your BIOS is available (2.59). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.59 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - Touchpad working intermittently + [Lenovo ThinkPad T530] Touchpad working intermittently -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328616 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad T530] Touchpad working intermittently Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My touchpad only responds about 10% of the time I use it. It's extremely intermittent and unreliable. I use a Lenovo Thinkpad T530 with Ubuntu 14.04, kernel version 3.13.0-29. This problem has persisted since the previous version of Ubuntu, although I didn't make a note of what kernel versions. I'm not exactly sure when it started since I use an external mouse most of the time. My Thinkpad has one of those "pencil eraser" type mouses in the middle of the keyboard as well, and it works just fine. All mouse buttons work fine as well.
