Yes, those are the steps that I've been using to reproduce it. I achieved a fix of sorts by using xmodmap to bind capslock to control, which takes away capslock. However, if I use the Ubuntu keyboard configure app to rebind it, it still disconnects the touchpad.
I can also reproduce the bug just by hitting caps lock while I'm typing fast, when there's no touchpad activity. -- Synaptics touchpad periodically disconnects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193575 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
