I found a solution!
It seems to have been as simple as delete purge xserver-xorg and then reinstall xserver-xorg

This fixed the issue for me.
However, in the meantime I also manually updated my linux headers to the latest version (for wiley) because they would not update correctly by just doing sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic.
So I don't know if that contributed or not...

Title:
  Touchpad Not Working

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After upgrading from Ubuntu 14 to 15.10 the touchpad no longer works.
  To get it to work, I must manually reload the mouse drivers through
  terminal. However, this only works for the current session.
