[Launchpad Bug Tracker <586402@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have Dell Studio 1535 laptop with Alps touchpad. Scrolling in right
part of the touchpad usually works, but sometimes it just does not. When
it is not working, touchpad tab is not shown in mouse configuration tool
in gnome and there is no way to enable the scrolling again. I have to
reboot (sometimes several times) so that the scrolling works again.

Relevant part from Xorg.log.0:

....
