[mauribera <maurizio@xxxxxx>]

Dear Chris, I installed the latest Kernel and there was no change. 
However I have a new info to provide which might help.
I booted the laptop with the Windows 7 installatin CD just to check that 
the touchpad was still working. When Windows was ready to start the 
installation I canceled it, quickly ejected the CD and the PC moved to 
Ubuntu prompt to load the OS and after a few seconds to the Ubuntu log 
in page. After this, the touchpad started to work perfectly.
When I re-booted the system from the pre-intalled Ubuntu the touchpad 
was dead again.
I made also attempts with live CD of other distributions, e.g., Suse and 
Red Hat, without any success.
Apparently Windows loads the driver which is utilized by Ubuntu if load 
just after.

Looking forward to hearing form you.
Best regards, maurizio
