I have a dual Win10 boot and (K)ubuntu 18.04 on a Fujitsu Ultrabook UH572 i5/8GBram and (K)ubuntu is running on a 32GBSSD. After a clean install of (K)ubuntu 18.04 I noticed that the touchpad wasn't working...On Win everything works fine.
It's the first time I'm running Ubuntu on this machine so I don"t know what the issue could be. In the past I never had an issue with the touchpad. Maybe it has to do with the fact that its a click-touch-pad? It has no buttons just a big area, kind like a Mac.....
In any case I can see the touchpad when typing xinput list in terminal. Below the output:
kongking@UH572:~$ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ USB OPTICAL MOUSE id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Fujitsu FUJ02E3 id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ FJ Camera: FJ Camera id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
I've tried editing the etc/default/grub file and replacing "quiet splash" with "acpi=force", according the link below: SynPS/2 Synaptic Touchpad not working in Ubuntu 17.10, with no luck.
Any ideas how to tackle this??
Sorry if I misuse the Forum and your time, with an Kubuntu question but whenever I have a problem I search at Ubuntu solutions....and to be honest I couldn't find a more relevant site.
Many thanks, μρ .
