Re: Toshiba Satellite x200 TOUCHPAD PROBLEM

This may or may not be helpful. I have a Compaq Presario F767NR laptop and for a long time the touchpad worked perfectly out-of-the-box. Then all of a sudden, after an upgrade, it stopped working completely and I had to use my usb mouse instead. The solution was I needed then to install the package xf86-input-synaptics. After installing that and not changing anything else, the touchpad worked perfectly again.
