Public bug reported:
The touchpad cannot working after LID close/open on HP Presario CQ45
machines.
The reproduce steps:
1) Boot into Ubuntu 14.04
2) Close LID
3) Open LID
Result: The mouse cursor cannot move.
I also found if I do close/open LID again, the mouse cursor can works
again.
After analysis, when the LID is closed kbc emits an event (D8) and udev
remapping it to F21 (touchpad toggle event). When X server receives the
event, it disables touchpad. However there is no corresponding event
triggered after LID is opened thus X server does not enable the touchpad
and results in this issue.
Currently udev keymaping for presarion CQ is:
# Presario
keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnHewlett-Packard*:pn*Presario*CQ*:pvr*
KEYBOARD_KEY_d8=f21
KEYBOARD_KEY_d9=f21
I think it should be changed to:
# Presario
keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnHewlett-Packard*:pn*Presario*CQ*:pvr*
KEYBOARD_KEY_d8=!f23 # touchpad off
KEYBOARD_KEY_d9=!f22 # touchpad on
