Description Will Kemp 2012-03-10 08:38:18 UTC

Description of problem:I installed F16 from the live USB stick image and the touchpad worked ok. Then i did a yum update and after that the touchpad stopped working completely. I've marked this as an xorg problem, but i'm not certain that's what it really is. Xorg was updated to xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.11.4-1.fc16.i686 however the kernel was updated to  kernel-3.2.9-1.fc16.i686 at the same time.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-3.2.9-1.fc16.i686

How reproducible: unknown

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install from F16 live USB
2. run yum update
3.
  
Actual results:
Touchpad doesn't work

Expected results:
Touchpad does work

Additional info: Synaptics touchpad in a Acer Aspire One D270 netbook.

I have a similar laptop from Acer. Are you sure you didn't disable the touchpad by accidentally pressing the disable-touchpad-key (Fn+F7)? I ask this because I did that and it cost me 2 hours to realize :-)

Comment 2 Will Kemp 2012-03-14 07:39:57 UTC

No, it's not that. That was the first thing i checked!

Comment 3 Peter Hutterer 2012-03-26 10:50:38 UTC

gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad  touchpad-enabled

returns true?

Comment 4 Will Kemp 2012-04-04 22:15:55 UTC

Yes, it returns true.

Comment 5 Will Kemp 2012-04-04 22:20:40 UTC

However, that's a bit academic now, as the last two kernel updates (3.2.9-1.fc16.i686 and 3.2.10-3.fc16.i686) have brought a new problem - when X starts the system reboots. With the 3.1.0-7 kernel X starts up ok. But i guess that's a different bug and i should report it separately...

Comment 6 Will Kemp 2012-04-19 23:49:00 UTC

Well, it turns out it was the disable-touchpad key. I definitely checked that, but i must have missed something!
