Bug#689102: linux-image-amd64: Synaptic touchpad is no longer working
Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 3.2+45
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I have updated my debian sid installation yesterday (I am not sure
when I updated before, maybe a week?).
* What was the outcome of this action?
Today when I booted my lenovo thinkpad T520 the touchpad and the
trackpoint stopped working. I checked and no synaptic* kernel module
is loaded and neither the xorg log nor dmesg contains traces of synaptic
related output.
The touchpad is of course still enabled in the bios and the function key
to enable/disable the touchpad has no effect either.
What puzzles me is that booting linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64 did not help either :-/
(I am not sure what causes the bug, but because there is no synaptic kernel module
loaded, I'm starting with a bug for the kernel... Please reassign to the apropriate
package if I guessed wrong) ;-)
* What outcome did you expect instead?
A working touchpad :´-(
