[Bug 374459] Re: touchpad can be switched off, but not on again

 

@bmhm. OK, thanks for the clarification. While we wait for the Ubuntu
kernel team to have a look at this bug; let's open an upstream bug at
fdo as well. I don't know enough about touchpads to say in what
component this bug is hiding, but I believe the logs etc you have
provided should be sufficient for a developer to have a look at it. Can
you please open a bug at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ with a clean
summary of the logs and what we found out about the modprobe etc. Report
the bug against "xorg" and set the component to "Input/Synaptics". Once
you have created an upstream bug, use the link "Also affects project"
near the top of the Launchpad bug and paste the upstream URL in there.
This will link the two bug reports so that the Ubuntu packagers get an
automatic notification whenever upstream fixes the bug. Should xorg
upstream conclude that it's not a bug in the synaptics xorg package we
can open a similar upstream bug report against bugzilla.kernel.org
instead...

I'd prefer if the Ubuntu kernel team had a look at this bug first
though, so we know for sure that this bug report has all the data that
the upstream kernel developers are likely to need for their analysis.
