Re: Touchpad is not working anymore

So, windows inf/chipset have nothing to do with what now doens't work on linux. My bad, I'm mixing stuffs.
I've been researching a bit and I found that maybe, I should update the BIOS.
Supposedly, there's an option on the BIOS to activate/deactivate the touchpad. I don't have that, only for the keyboard and the keyboard backlight.

Also, I've found that using the function keys, Something like fn+f7 just works and activates the touchpad. I don't have that, actualy I have those functions keys directly.

I've done a `cat /dev/input/mouse0` and I get nothing when moving my finger on the touchpad. compared to `cat /dev/input/mouse1` (which is the usb mouse) it does returns some strange caracters.

So, I'm going to update the BIOS and then, I'll let you know guys what happened.

Definitely is the first INF/chipset update on windows.
Now I cannot even move the touchpad on Fedora 19 installation.

I wonder if I can remove the chipset update...

Hello All!

I've been playing with fedora a little bit and I just love it! I've have the gnome GDM and the Cinnamon Desktop.
My Toshiba U945-S4140 is running Fedora 19 and Windows 7. Didn't like the pre-installed Windows 8 and I just remove it.
They both were playing very well, until I've done two things:
1. Update a INF/Chipset deal on the Windows part.
2. Update the kernel on Fedora.

Since the first Update, the touchpad have stopped working.
The pointer is not being displayed and, if I connect an usb mouse I cannot move it with the touchpad. (obviously, the usb mouse works perfectly).

I have this on /var/log/Xorg.0.log

I have only one solution: Reinstall Fedora 19. Which, I think, is the worse option.
Any help will be received with open arms, and will be really appreciated.

Thanks for your time,
Diego
