Re: Touchpad is not working anymore

No, what I've updated on Windows is the chipset. Which (supposedly) only makes Windows to recognize parts of the hardware, like the LAN card, the WiFi card and so forth.

Now, there is a special disable/enable touchpad hotkey. But it just doesn't work.
I've tried that in my Fedora 19, in anaconda at fedora's 19 installation, Linux Mint 15 live cd and ubuntu 12.10 live cd. In none of those sessions my touchpad or the d/e touchpad hotkey works.
Then, as I said before, with an usb mouse the pointer shows up again and is 100% functionally. But still, I cannot move the pointer with the touchpad.

I thought you said touchpad?

Perhaps you should say *exactly* what that Windows update was, so
someone familiar with your hardware can say something.

But just a thought - is there a special disable touchpad hotkey on your
computer?  Perhaps it needs pressing to undisable it.  That update may
have changed a default behaviour.
