[Bug 59867] Re: Synaptics touchpad ceases functioning after suspend and resume.

[Tero Karvinen]

** Description changed:

  After suspending the notebook, resume works fine except that the
  Synaptics touchpad no longer responds to any input.
  
  Restarting the X server does not help.
  
  Attempting to cat /dev/input/mice at the console and then moving the
  touchpad does not show any input being received. The touchpad which had
  been /dev/input/mouse0 is no longer listed after the resume.
  
  This bug was present in Dapper and still exists in the current
  (2006-09-11) build of Edgy as well and Karmic Koala (9.10)
  
  Gateway MX6625 Notebook
  Centrino Chipset
  Synaptics Touchpad
  
  Also affects
  Gateway MX6025 Notebook with Karmic Koala 9.10
  HP EliteBook 2530p with Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS amd64
+ and others. 
+ 
+ Multiple ways to bypass the bug are suggested in comments. Adding Grub
+ parameter atkbd.reset worked for many. Set
+ GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash atkbd.reset" in
+ /etc/default/grub, run 'sudo update-grub' and reboot.
