Thanks a lot for your prompt reply, I hope someone can put some effort into into it.
It happened last week, when I upgraded pop os! from 17.10 to 18.04 issuing do-release-upgrade Now I have the following kernel: $ uname -a Linux pop-os 4.15.0-45-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 29 16:28:13 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux But as I told, I can reproduce the same issue from the current daily image of ubuntu. ** Attachment added: "apt/history.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1816947/+attachment/5240492/+files/history.log ** Tags added: apport-collected bionic ** Description changed: already filed at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1096046 check: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input- synaptics/+bug/1096046/comments/33 affects: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) The bug is marked expired an low priority, but it really prevents me from using ubuntu or any other distro based on it on my machine. Please reopen it! the bug has been successfully reproduced on my machine using the latest daily build --- $ lspci -v 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM
