Hi all, Just wanted to add my experience with this. I also have found that my Synaptics touchpad becomes unresponsive after waking from a suspend. It isn't restored by a modprobe -r psmouse / modprobe psmouse. The only thing that restores it is a shutdown (without -r option) followed by a fresh boot. I noticed also that, when it is showing this unresponsive touchpad symptom, sudo cat /dev/input/event8 | hexdump produces nothing at all when i move my finger around on the touchpad (event8 is the touchpad in my system, as shown by /proc/bus/input/devices). Yet, doing: sudo cat /dev/input/event16 | hexdump (which is my usb wireless mouse) does produce output when I move my mouse around. I'm not very familiar with kernel, drivers, firmware, etc. I did think the bit about /dev/input/event8 was interesting though, but I'm not sure what to do with that information. If anyone is interested, please feel free to suggest a set of commands and their output you might want to see, or procedures to try. I hope this new data point is useful. Thanks in advance!
