[Bug 1538788] [NEW] synaptics touchpad does not move mouse cursor when selecting install on menu on my hp laptop.

 

Public bug reported:

To reproduce boot the version considered for alpha 2 of amd64 of lubuntu
on my paritcular hp pavilion dv6 1230us laptop. then try to move the
mouse cursor or click with the mouse with the touchpad to isntall on
this laptop. I have installed xenial before on this laptop and it was
working in the full install.

Description:	Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch)
Release:	16.04

I expected the touchpad to work and proived two buttons and a
scrollwheel on the side. Instead I try to ues the touchpad and get no
apparent result. right clicking does not bring up a context menu and
does not bring up a cursor. the keyboard does work. I have a usb wifi
that works out of the box with lubuntu but this gets hard to use on the
installer and selecting partion type with keyboard only.
