Bug Description

I have Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 11, the cheapest AMD version, with Athlon II NEO K145, ATI Radeon HD 4225. When I bought it one month ago I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on it and was having problem mentioned in the summary. After that I tried the latest Arch Linux, and there was the same situation. Then I installed fresh Ubuntu 11.04 release and the problem is still here. I can't say, is it solved in 2.6.39 rc1-rc5 or not, because my graphics card can't initialize properly. My current linux-generic version is 2.6.38-8.42.

External mouse works normally, no freezes detected (1 hour of testing), without disabling hardware controls. When I use integrated controls, freeze affects both devices - trackpoint and touchpad. Then I have to wait for ~3 seconds and then everything works as it was before. Sometimes right before freeze pointer jumps to random position on the screen, sometimes it keeps old position. Mouse button states are kept to the end of the freeze. Everything, excluding touchpad and trackpoint, works (keyboard, power button, sound, video, lid detectors).

I'd like to help investigating this, but I have no idea how to do it.

Confirmed Thinkpad Edge 11" Ubuntu 11.04.

I read that this problem was coming up on Windows also. see http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge/Mouse-cursor-freezes-on-new-Thinkpad-Edge-15-quot/td-p/383939

solutions were:

1) disable the trackpointer
2) download a new driver (its for windows so it does not do us any good)

this might be a conflict with the trackpointer. I am planning to try to disable the track pointer (need to figure out how to do this) Will let you know how this works. . .

I had the same problem with an Edge 11. I am now using the following kernel command line for grub in /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=linux noapic i8042.nomux=1"

If I remember correctly the first two settings are necessary for sleep modes to work and the i8042.nomux=1 setting fixes the freeze issue. You should give it a try. And don't forget to run update-grub after changing the config file.

Stephan Bertl (stkphan) wrote on 2011-08-03:

i have got the same problem, no fixes with GRUB arguments work.

I made a temporary fix for me, maybe you could try that. It involves editing kernel-source code.

1) download kernel source, i took 3.0.0, and unpack
2) edit file: sudo gedit drivers/input/mouse/psmouse-base.c
3) look for
static int psmouse_handle_byte(struct psmouse *psmouse)

you have to comment out some lines, my psmouse_handle_byte function is:

static int psmouse_handle_byte(struct psmouse *psmouse)
{
psmouse_ret_t rc = psmouse->protocol_handler(psmouse);

switch (rc) {
case PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA:
/* if (psmouse->state == PSMOUSE_ACTIVATED) {
* printk(KERN_WARNING "psmouse.c: %s at %s lost sync at byte %d\n",
* psmouse->name, psmouse->phys, psmouse->pktcnt);
* if (++psmouse->out_of_sync_cnt == psmouse->resetafter) {
* __psmouse_set_state(psmouse, PSMOUSE_IGNORE);
* printk(KERN_NOTICE "psmouse.c: issuing reconnect request\n");
* serio_reconnect(psmouse->ps2dev.serio);
* return -1;
* }
* }
*/ psmouse->pktcnt = 0;
break;

case PSMOUSE_FULL_PACKET:
  psmouse->pktcnt = 0;
  if (psmouse->out_of_sync_cnt) {
   psmouse->out_of_sync_cnt = 0;
   printk(KERN_NOTICE "psmouse.c: %s at %s - driver resynched.\n",
    psmouse->name, psmouse->phys);
  }
  break;

case PSMOUSE_GOOD_DATA:
break;
}
return 0;
}

no more freezes, BUT I don't know what the consequences are, now it does not resync anymore.

Please backup the file before editing.

Then compile your kernel

Disabling the trackpoint helps.
You can do it with:
$ xinput set-int-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Device Enabled" 8 0

Sorry, I was wrong.
It still freezes. However not as often as before.
I also tried GRUB arguments but it didn't work.

One more workaround to try:
$ sudo modprobe -r psmouse
$ sudo modprobe psmouse resetafter=30

Also check current values of other psmouse parameters:
$ for i in /sys/module/psmouse/parameters/*; do echo -n "$(basename $i): " | cat - $i; done
and their descriptions:
$ modinfo psmouse

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the release candidate kernel versus the daily build. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

I think this is hardware problem, because I have the same problem with windows 7. In win7 trackpoint freezes, but slightly less, as I thought.
Lenovo forum recommend disable touch-pad. I implemented the recommendations, but the problem remains =(

I have to admit my solution in #3 does not work for me either. Notebook is not my own so I was not aware that problem is still there. I thought we had a state were the bad behavior was gone.

I'm seeing this exact same problem on 11.10, with my ASUS g73jw laptop. The symptoms are that the touchpad freezes every few seconds for a couple of seconds. Additionally, even though every touch-to-click and scrolling option is disabled, touching the touchpad near the right of it causes windows to do erratic things - such as go into to move mode, or maximize. If the touchpad is disabled, all works perfectly.

I have "disable touchpad while typing" disabled per other people seeing a related issue, but it makes no difference and I suspect this is an orthogonal issue.

Just for fun I installed xfce (apt-get install xubuntu-desktop). This doesn't change the hardware, the kernel, or any drivers, factoring them out of the equation. The result? My touchpad works flawlessly with xfce, where it does not under unity or gnome-classic.

The solution for me is simple - bye-bye unity/gnome, hello xfce!

I just want to mention that the problem disappeared for me when I put these lines in /etc/rc.local.

modprobe -r psmouse
modprobe psmouse resetafter=30

Using:
* Thinkpad Edge 11 with Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU U 380 @ 1.33GHz
* (LInux Mint 11 (=Ubuntu Natty),
* Kernel 2.6.38-13-generic (x64)

Thanks to Aleksey Porfirov (lexqt) for suggesting the modprobe trick.

Olegs Jeremejevs, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

the xinput approach didn't make it any better for me. the resetafter=30 approach seems to work, though (i chose to exaggerate and put =300 there), so here's my current parameter set:

$ cd /sys/module/psmouse/parameters/; grep "" *
force_elantech:N
proto:auto
rate:100
resetafter:300
resolution:200
resync_time:0
smartscroll:Y

I can confirm that this is definetely NOT an issue caused by suspend/resume. Moreover I think it's an issue often occuring on battery. It's often happening after a clean boot on battery.
