Bug Description

Ubuntu mate 15.04

On my Acer v3-371 laptop the touchpad doesnt work after suspend.

I have tried googling for solutions. And tried various fixes from the following links:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1393079

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2250002

But so far nothing has helped. I have checked lsmod, xinput, lsusb before and after suspend but nothing obvious seems wrong (im a noob though so might not be right..)

Some additional info

Pressing Fn+f7 after resuming will enable the touchpad again!

Now.. if only i could put that in a script somewhere (/etc/pm/sleep.d/ ?) that would fix my problem
