Title:
  MacBook Pro touchpad randomly stops working, needs module reload

Status in Mactel Support:
  New

Bug description:
  I've got a Macbook Pro 6,2 that runs Ubuntu 11.04.
  It randomly happens - let's say every hour - that the touchpad stops working. The pointer freezes but cliking and double clicking is still possible. 

  The ugly workaround is to open a terminal, remove the module and load it again:
  sudo modprobe -r bcm5974
  sudo modprobe bcm5974

  This did not happen with 10.10
  I will now attach dmesg output. If you need some logs, just tell me.
