Possibly #1336086 is a dublicate.

I am confirming this bug for my DELL LATITUDE D620 (old machine) and Ubuntu Trusty LTS.

The trouble with the touchpad driver - the touchpad being misrecognised as a PS2 mouse - seems to occure with different DELL models as well as even with different manufacturers (cf. #1336086).

Since working with a pointing device is essential to productive working on a computer and since there has been often trouble with this driver since Ubuntu Precise (solving the bug seems to have been eventually dropped for Precise, Quantal etc.) I would like to suggest that a bug solution should be intensively worked on.
