Title:
  [Dell Vostro 3546] Sometimes the clickpad will be malfunctioning on
  this system

Status in HWE Next Project:
  New
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  CID: 201404-14997 Dell Vostro 3546

  Sometimes the clickpad on this system does not work as expected.
  It will stop responding to any movments, the only way to move the cursor is click on the touchpad and drag (just like selecting multiple files)
  I'm not sure what event could trigger this issue, but I do see this twice on this system (and on 201404-14998, another Vostro 3546)
  One is right after the whole testing process, another is after being suspended for two days.

  I tried to run the 30 cycle suspend / hibernate and the cpu stress
  test, but it seems that these are not the trigger.
