Dear Christopher,
thanks for the hint.
I updated successfully the BIOS from version 1.07 --> 1.08. Unfortunately, the touchpad issue remains the same as it was with BIOS 1.07. 
The command "sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date" issued:
V1.08
07/30/2013

How to proceed now with the bug?

  regression from Oneiric to Precise+.

  a)WORKAROUND: Pushing Fn+F7 before login
  or
