[Bug 1564237] [NEW] Acer touchpad stopped working with kernel 3.19.0-56

 

Public bug reported:

After Ubuntu updated the kernel to 3.19.0-56 the touchpad stopped working.
The mouse pointer never appears and touching/dragging/clicking has no effect.
I can make it work by using the GRUB menu to boot 3.19.0-49 instead.

On the older, working, kernel xinput outputs:
