[Bug 1490130] Re: Elantech touchpad stops working after suspend

 

Hello thatoo, i compiled the kernel for myself with the patch that given by daniel. this is the instruction i followed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel
"drivers/input/serio/i8042.c" file only exists on the kernel source.
lines with "+" at first character are the patch that you should modify or add to "drivers/input/serio/i8042.c" file.
to identify your laptop model you can run 
sudo dmidecode | grep Product\ Name

btw, i'm sorry for my english, not my native language.

Title:
  Elantech touchpad stops working after suspend

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  i have asus a455ld i5 5200u running kubuntu 15.04 with kernel 4.0.8-040008-generic. 
  touchpad is recognized as elantech version 4. everything was fine until my notebook go to suspend and resume without touchpad working.
  I tried :
  modprobe -r psmouse
  modprobe psmouse

  it only work before suspend.
  execute those commands after resume from suspend is not working.

  the last thing i tried is this.

  when i use this command before suspend :

  insmod
  /lib/modules/4.0.8-040008-generic/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko

  these appear in the dmesg:

  [  820.207105] psmouse serio1: elantech: assuming hardware version 4 (with firmware version 0x381f00)
  [  820.222270] psmouse serio1: elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 0x10, 0x14, 0x0e.
  [  820.294698] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input146

  but when i use the command after suspend, there is nothing any output
  in the dmesg.

  i tried all ubuntu varian and opensuse 13.2 live usb, the result is the same. 
  but in windows 10,  touchpad still active after suspend.
