Perhaps #87 provides a permanent solution, but not for me. I added the parameters: $ dmesg | grep i8042 [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-generic root=UUID=6011851c-f1ed-4a48-a724-d02cd7732d6b ro i8042.reset i8042.nomux quiet splash [ 0.663510] serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 [ 0.663534] serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 [ 0.697496] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input5
But the touchpad is still dead. What I've found out with tpconfig: $ tpconfig -i Could not open PS/2 Port [/dev/psaux]. $ sudo tpconfig -i Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Sensor type: unknown (0). Geometry: rectangular/landscape/up. Packets: absolute, 80 packets per second. Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. Edge motion: none. Z threshold: 6 of 7. 2 button mode; corner tap is right button click. Is it okay that it doesn't find the touchpad without sudo? -- [10.04] Touchpad stops working after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549727 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
