Comment 94 for bug 59867

I got a HP EliteBook 2530p on u9.10 with the same problem. Though it's has a fancy behaviour: First of all, after resuming the touchpad is going rogue and doesn't work anymore. If I use only the pointer stick, everything is fine, keyboard works as well. Yet, the first slide over the touchpad ends up in a unpredictable keyboard/mouse input and keyboard+stick+touchpad is ending up dead or bogus. Now, if I standby and resume again, either everything work fine right away, or I can use tab or stick to "Switch User" in the "Unlock Screen". Then X refreches someway and everything is fine again and I select my user and unlock the screen. The cherry on the cage, this is without exception an alternating behaviour. I'm already used to wake up the thingy by a resume+immediate standby+resume again.

Xorg.0.log says:
---------------------------

and in /var/log/messages I realized the following lines are missing, for wake-ups with the problem:
