Greetings Tarko,

I am on a 4810tz-4696 and my mouse/pointer is acting far from fine and
there is absolutely nothing in the logs that I can see indicating a
problem.  I had thought about a reinstall but it was enough of a pain
to get it installed in the first place.

The issue with the mouse pad on/off is a known bug which has been
filed.  An interesting work around (allegedly) is that you can disable
the touchpad with the button and if you suspend and then resume the
machine, the touchpad will work.  I believe that the touchpad will
work after the resume even if the light is still on for the "touchpad
disabled"...thing.
