Public bug reported:

Hi,

this bug has been since 12.04. The problem is, trackpad is not working
at all with clean install (at least in 12.04, 13.04, 13.10).

This solves the problem (solution found from here:
https://lifebook.ts.fujitsu.com/blog/blog/category/general/ubuntu-12-10
-quantal-quetzal-on-fujitsu-lifebook-uh572/s )

1. open a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-T)
2. run
   $ sudo gedit /etc/default/grub (or your favourite editor - I prefer "vim")  
3. find the line containing: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
4. add "i8042.notimeout i8042.nomux" to the string in quotes
5. save and exit
6. run
   $ sudo update-grub
7. reboot
