[Bug 1208270] Re: Touchpad does not work upon startup

 

Drew Blasius, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/inspiron-
15r-5520 an update is available for your BIOS (A14). If you update to
this, does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.
