[zoltan luttenberger <zlutten@xxxxxxxxx>]

it works after I figured out that the insertion goes into the quotation not behind
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8042.notimeout i8042.nomux"
https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/kernel-boot-parameter-edit/ 
I'm on 3.13.0-83 now
this might be useful for non-geeks like me
big thanks for the fix above, real help
