Sorry, took me a while to reply, because it was night in my part of the world.
I do have the i8042/serio0 and serio1 folders, but there is no folder of file called "flags" in them. The touchpad freaks out after everytime now, after fresh boot. In fact it also freaks out in a live-usb (no cd drive). Which is very strange...a few days ago, when I first installed this thing, the live-usb was working fine. Nothing has changed now, but the touchpad is no longer good in the live-usb. How is this explainable? Could it be that the live-usb is using the installed files? That cannot be... Doing the modprobe works....it renders the touchpad out of operation I'll try the commands from the live-usb....but I'm not seeing much hope there... -- Add driver for Sentelic Touch pad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311869 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
