Please read all of the replies and you will find the temporary solution. This one seems to work for me, but you shouldn't touch your on/off button otherwise this will mess it up your mouse/keyboard functionality.
Run the terminal and paste this: gconftool-2 --set --type boolean /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled true Then reboot your laptop. After start-up your touch-pad should work as it should. To undo it when permanent solution will come up just paste: gconftool-2 --set --type boolean /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/touchpad_enabled false -- Keyboard does not work when touchpad disable button pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
