On my Acer TravelMate 3200, clicking with the Synaptics touchpad when no mouse
is plugged in has the following effect:
When visual effects are enabled, the screen freezes completely. When visual
effects are not enabled, I can still move the mouse, but movements are
extremely jerky and I can't click anywhere; the keyboard does not work either.
This happens regardless of whether I use the touchpad's "mouse" buttons or a
tap click. When a USB mouse is attached, I can use the touchpad without a
problem.
When the sytem has become unresponsive to mouse and keyboard inputs, SSHing
into it is the only way to shut it down (short of holding down the power key
until the power goes off).
I'm using Karmic 32-bit.
