Bug Description
(Filed after reading [1].)
When I'm at the login screen, my touchpad still works fine, and after logging in, it still works. However, after anything from a few seconds to a few minutes (and in a few rare cases even after an hour or so), it suddenly stops working, and I'm not sure what could be causing it.
I never had this problem on Ubuntu 10.10 (Netbook edition), but since I installed 11.04 (preserving my /home directory) this problem occurs. I'm using a ZaReason Terra HD [2]. A normal mouse works just fine.

I just removed all my ~/.dotfiles, and put them back one by one (sort of), and managed to trim it down to a problem with an autostarted application. Unchecking and rechecking those one by one (sort of), narrowing it down to a problem with mpd-sound-menu. Brad, if you experience the same problem but due to another cause, could you report a new bug?
