Well I've at least found a workaround. I added 'udevadm settle' right before the 'exec lightdm' in /etc/init/lightdm.conf. As long as that is in place, I do not experience this issue.
So, I think this is an issue with boot speed. My machine has almost nothing installed beyond the default, and boots from grub -> lightdm in about 5 - 8 seconds. That might explain why you don't see it Seth if you have more things starting at bootup, as that may be enough to delay X long enough for udev to be available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936552 Title: MacBookAir 4,1 trackpad does not work with evdev/multitouch driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/936552/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
