[Bug 593080] [NEW] synaptics touchpad clicks working erratically

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

clicking via tap or hardware-button only works occasionally, often the
mouse will hang in a pressed-state.

Loading module synaptics_i2c got rid of this behaviour temporarily, but
now the issue is back, even though synaptics_i2c is still loaded.

Several days before the issue came up, I installed the package
'gpointing-device-properties' and enabled two-finger- and circular
scroll, which did not work for me - the touchpad just kept working as
before for some days, until this came up.

Disabling the above features and uninstalling gpointing-device-
properties has not helped.

After reinstalling, gpointing-device-properties does not list the
touchpad any more.

Any clues?

:)
