Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

After upgrading a desktop install from 10.10 to Natty (development
branch), the touchpad on my HP Pavilion dv4-1313dx does not work after I
log in.  I drag my finger across the touch pad and the cursor does not
move.  If I move the cursor with an external mouse, and click the touch-
pad's hardware buttons, they are not detected.

The touchpad works fine on the sign-in screen, but ceases to function on
login.  In particular, if I wiggle the cursor after entering my
password, it stops moving when the sign-in screen background disappears.
(To be clear, the touchpad does not work after login whether I move the
cursor or not.)

This happens both on the "Ubuntu" and "Ubuntu classic" sessions (Unity
and Gnome with effects).  I have not tried the no-effect Gnome desktop.

External USB mice work fine.

I've tried un-checking "Disable touchpad while typing" in the mouse
preferences program, but that didn't help.
