Bug Description
I expect a mouse in Ubuntu 14.04x64. Although xinput reports the TouchPad, it is not functional. I cannot see a mouse cursor or click things.
This is a fresh install (not an update/upgrade). I do not know if the TouchPad worked with prior kernels.
xinput reports:
SynPS/2 Synaptics Touch Pad id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
Solutions I have tried:
Keypad solutions:
F5
Fn+F5
pressing NumLock repeatedly during boot
Modprobe solutions:
sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse
sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps
sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse proto=exps
Kernel solutions (append to grub at end of quiet splash line):
atkbd.reset i8042.nomux
i8042.nopnp
Missing Package solutions:
sudo apt-get install xserver-
sudo apt-get install gpointing-
xinput now fails to report SynPS/2 Synaptics Touch Pad
