touchpad not recognized after updtate to 15.04

Question

After I updated my touchpad no longer works. I have a Toshiba e45t-A4200 Touchscreen laptop. The touchscreen now works fine, but I lost all functionality with my touchpad except for clicking. My touchpad is not recognized as a touchpad. Any help is appreciated. -Josh

sudo modprobe -r psmouse
