Note: Bug is still alive in october 2015 - that is nearly 25 months old ! == My config Fully up to date 14.04. Nvidia GTX 950M + Integrated Intel Asus ROG G551J Elantech Touchpad
== Elantech Touchpad, the common hardware After seeking on the net, I've find (here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/766166/elantech-touchpad-related-nvidia-driver-freeze/) that many people who experience the bug have an Elantech Touchpad and are using the synaptics drivers. To check if you're in the same situation: $ cat /sys/class/input/mouse0/device/name ->> ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad == Proposed workaround It seems that the following workaround works, although I can't promise anything. We are however all expecting that NVidia developers fix their drivers properly. $ sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-{your-flavour} $ sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-mtrack-{your-flavour} Hope you're doing better with that solution ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220426 Title: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1220426/+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
