my mouse isnt alway working

[Felix Semler]

I am using a macbook pro for this ubuntu distro on a 61 gb partition.
I realize macbooks are terrible for linux however I felt like giving it a try, the trackpad was working on some start ups but seems not to be anymore at all. I saw online that reporting this issue is possible from terminal, so i figured it would be the correct thing to do.
Anyway I shall try to find a solution now

Does coldboot (i.e shutdown, power on) help?
