*** Bug 499095 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This seems to be the same issue, but on a different laptop (Compaq Presario 2110US): http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2009-04/msg00241.html The Dell E1505 also uses a Synaptics touchpad. Hmm, I would like to change one thing I said. "after installation has completed the touchpad works fine." I've had a few input-less boots, on Aspire 4330's and 3680's, and it -seems- to happen a lot more often if I play with screen brightness during the startup process. I don't know if this is helpful information, but I felt that at least I should amend my statement to say that the touchpad almost always works fine after installation. (When the inputs are not recognized, only the power button receives a response. Also, when the inputs are working, they don't stop working until the system is shut down.) it just doesnt work during installation... i had the same problem with a Packard Bell laptop, with synaptics touchpad. as others, touchpad works fine after installation. Attachment 288753 [details] has the boot.msg file from my Dell E1505 (32-bit). In it, it is clear that the touchpad is being detected at least:
<6>Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.2, id: 0x180b1, caps: 0xa04713/0x200000
<6>input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6
*** Bug 500046 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** In my case, the mouse is unresponsive for the first half of the install. After it reboots after the package expansion in order to do network setup, the mouse works during that part of the install. I took a look at the xorg.conf file while the mouse was unresponsive and couldn't see any obvious faults or typos. Reproducible on a Acer Aspire 5100, still in the install phase so I don't know how it will react afterwards but plugging in a usb mouse works in the meantime. Same effect on Gateway 200ARC (Synaptic Touchpad) - not responsive during installation, but after the installation works fine. Also, an USB mouse connected during the installation worked fine. Also on Gateway 7422GX laptop on Milestone 2 Synaptics Touchpad installed. Model: 1, fw: 5.9, id: 0x236eb3, caps: 0x904713/0x10008 input: SynPS/2 Synaptics Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6 Also on my Toshiba notebook purchased in March 2009. Model:1, fw: 7.0, id: 0x1e0b1, caps: 0xd04711/0xa00000 Same problem with Asus laptops X51RL and A5TC Same issue with a Synaptics touchpad on a Dell 700m, follows just like above. I've the same trouble on Acer Extensa 5630G (synaptic touchpad, openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 3 x86). Still a problem on Milestone 3. Same hardware as in Comment 5 *** Bug 517148 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Milestone 3, MSI Wind U100. Is the same issue, but on a different laptop (HP Pavillion dv6420la). The touchpad works when the instalation is complete. This problem is still present in Milestone 4 As of Milestone 6, this problem is resolved for me. Seems to be fixed in Milestone 7. |
