Touchpad frozen after system suspend/standby

[Faylcon]

I have a Gateway notebook with Synaptic Touchpad and Ubuntu 10.10 Release Candidate. In this version of Ubuntu (and the previous 2 I have tried) the cursor freezes after closing the lid and hibernating/suspending/standby the computer. Any ideas on how to get the touchpad to wake up automatically?

My screen is frozen here. After a wake up, the pwoer LEDs are on, but the screen is off. Basically, everything is frozen, since I can't get any response by pressing random keys on the keyboard etc.

Only way to get back to ubuntu is a power reset.

I am using Uubntu netbook edition 10.10 on a Samsung NC10 (N450 processor).

It is annoying that Ubuntu has such big problems.

Please try to keep replies towards helping others with their problems rather than add to the list of things the thread is trying to deal with. This sort of reply will tend to make a thread with a specific topic devolve into a wide, general, and less helpful thread.

On a side note, my Dell XPS16 is having the same trouble. If anybody has any ideas on what to take a look at, what logs to dump, etc, please let me know and I'll look into it!

Thanks!

Do you, by chance, have an external mouse?

I have a Logitch external mouse, and when listing input devices after suspend (with touchpad not working), I get this (along with other devices, none of which are a synaptics touchpad):

Seeing it twice like that is odd...

I have this exact same issue. Dell XPS 16, Logitech external Mouse (Logitech MX AIR). Has anyone ever found a fix for this?

[jhawkjsu]

I was Googling the problem and came across this thread. The touchpad on my XPS 16 freezes after suspend/standby, too. Has anybody come across any fixes?

[SlickT10]

I have the same problem as the OP. I have a Gateway MX6650/MA2A Computer with the same problem. Any light on this subject? It's pretty important since I can't have an external mouse all the time and It makes the computer unusable to always have to restart or shutdown completely.

bump. Same issue on a Dell Vostro v13. Ubuntu 10.10. Anyone, anyone?

[lillem4n]

Same on my V13 Vostro... have anyone filed a bug? Where do you do that, and how?

I have a similar problem with my MSI Wind U100, but I'm using 11.04. After suspend, when I power up again, the screen is black. The mouse cursor appears after a while, and I can move it, but the screen stays black. Another time, the whole computer froze; couldn't move my mouse or type.
