I #'d (commented) out the line that said "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" "

Inserted :
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8042.reset i8042.nomux"
updated grub

Tried with reset, nomux, and both.

It fixed the keyboard and touchpad issue but broke the login.
I get three separate results.
1)During boot i get the blueish screen that appears during all boots before the splash that covers the boot scroll. No button will take it away and show the boot log scroll. Just stays bluish till I manually reset.
2) The bluish screen turns to a Splash and a generic login box appears. Then typing in my info, brings up a symbol that says that I am logged in but doesnt disappear and goto the desktop. It just stays on the splash and login window.
3) Just like result two except the screen goes blueish and an error window comes up and says failed to login to gnome session.

I have checked my install iso with md5sum and the install on the usb. I have reinstalled with UEFI option on the boot menu screen(which doesn't install) and the regular option on that screen 12 times now. The live usb boots and runs flawlessly. The installation works after the first boot and then just crumbles more and more each boot.

I am just now taking my first C programming class so this is out of my league but am familiar with bash and willing to fix this if i can.
