I encountered this problem after an installation test: "Install (ubiquity) in Edubuntu DVD i386 for Precise Daily".
I tested installation for two times, and the same issue occurred. A reboot solved the issue. ** Attachment added: "hardware profile" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/894486/+attachment/2676389/+files/hardwareprofile.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/894486 Title: After a clean install the touchpad doesn't work untill rebooting xserver or pc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/894486/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
