Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 14.04, the touchpad would not work at all, as if it was not present. Following the 14.10 upgrade, I am able to move the cursor and lef-click, but still have the following issues:
1. I am unable to right-click 2. I am unable to move the cursor while the left-click button is depressed (meaning I am unable to drag things or resize windows) 3. The cursor stops working entirely if I wake the computer up from suspend This bug seems to be related, but I was told to file a new one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1384752 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 Package: linux-image-3.16.0-29-generic 3.16.0-29.39 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-29.39-generic 3.16.7-ckt2 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: shaan 2193 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: shaan 2193 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Wed Jan 21 11:20:56 2015 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=bc9b62cf-e410-4cd9-b65c-dd1c0887a1e1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-01-18 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) MachineType: Dell Inc.
