I've just encountered this bug in an up-to-date hardy on my MacBook Pro. I have tried a few things to try and fix it, but I haven't had any luck.
In my xorg.conf, I've switched it to use the event protocol with the specific device. Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/input/by-id/usb-Apple_Computer_Apple_Internal_Keyboard_._Trackpad-event-mouse" Option "Protocol" "event" It works great on first bootup, but after a resume, I get this in the Xorg.0.log: (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/by-id/usb- Apple_Computer_Apple_Internal_Keyboard_._Trackpad-event-mouse Has anybody else found this problem? Maybe it's MacBook Pro specific? The resume ordering of kernel modules? ** Also affects: linux-source-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Synaptics touchpad ceases functioning after suspend and resume. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
