    No touchpad after updating to Ubuntu 13.04

    I recently updated from Ubuntu 12.10 to Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit using MATE 1.6.0. I am using it on a Samsung RC512 laptop. It uses an Intel i7 quadcore CPU, 6 GB of DDR3 RAM, and an nVidia GT 525m (don't know if any of this is relevant). It booted up fine, but after logging in I noticed that the touchpad no longer works. I plugged in my gaming mouse, and it works just fine. The left and right buttons on the touchpad work. I ran:

    Code:
    cat /proc/bus/input/devices
    which returned:

    Code:
    I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=000e Version=0000
    N: Name="ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad"
    P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
    S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input5
    U: Uniq=
    H: Handlers=mouse0 event5 
    B: PROP=1
    B: EV=b
    B: KEY=6420 30000 0 0 0 0
    B: ABS=260800011000003
    As far as I know, this means that the bug is not in the kernel. I lack the experience to proceed further than this. Thanks for the help.

    To add some additional information, the trackpad works as it should under Windows 7 which I run in a duelboot configuration with Ubuntu and under various live CDs I pulled out to test it. It appears to only have trouble with Ubuntu 13.04.

    I'd really like to get it working again. Thanks in advance for the help.

    Okay. Last try. Here are the two entries under
    Code:
    cat /proc/bus/input/devices
    for my current mouse I'm using since the touchpad stopped working.

    Code:
    I: Bus=0003 Vendor=1532 Product=0015 Version=0111
    N: Name="Razer Razer Naga"
    P: Phys=usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.2/input0
    S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.2/2-1.2:1.0/input/input5
