Satellite A0302 C50D and Ubuntu 12.04.4 - touchpad does not work so well

I have a Satellite C50D-A0302, PSCGWF part number.
I use Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS Pangolin specific to this topic, but the touchpad does not work so well.

How can I get the right drivers for the touchpad?

How do I know if the touchpad is Synaptics or ALPS, so I can get the correct drivers?

Thank you!

As you probably know Toshiba does not support Linux and does not offer Linux drivers.
All about you Googling can find many Linux forums. Try to find useful information here. I mean you can exchange your experiences with other people who are fans of Linux and experts, so I assume that you can get help here.

Initially, the entire mouse pad not working, I couldn't even move the mouse on the screen.

  • Satellite X 200-219 - the touchpad does not work as it should

    Hi all

    I recently bought a 2nd hand Toshiba Satellite x 200-219. Had some problems with it that I have overcome now, except one... The touchpad does not work as it should. I think that the cable has been damaged at some point.

    So I'm wondering if I should use the same ribbon cable to connect the keyboard to the motherboard or can I get one of a different model of PC Toshiba laptop?

    I tried searching on the net for advice but have resulted in nothing so thought I would try the forums.

    Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Lee

    I think you can use the items to the satellite X 205 series since this seems to be the same series as X 200:
    Found some related parts the touchpad:
    Satellite X 205 / X 200 touchpad Board with cable: reference number: K000047950
    Satellite part number for the TOUCH PAD FFC X 205 / X 200: K000047980

    But why you n t come into contact with a Toshiba authorized service provider in your country and order the part necessary and compatible?

  • Satellite PRO A200-1 s 1 with Windows 7 x 32. Touchpad does not work

    Hello world
    I installed Windows 7 on my Satellite Pro A200-1 s 1, recovered all the drivers on the Toshiba site, everything works fine (less than the webcam that doesn't work even with the previous s.o. XP or Vista...). But my Touchpad does not work... No Fn + F9, no drivers, nothing works. And in my control, Manager of Panel devices seem to be going well.
    Any suggestion?

    Hello

    You reinstall the driver for the touchpad?
    Check it!

    Also check if the option disable touchpad when USB mouse is connected is not checked. That are in the control panel-> mouse-> device settings

    There must be some problem with contact. I recommend to unlock touchpad wire, put it back in place and simply lock again.

  • Satellite A350 - Touchpad does not work, but an external mouse works

    Satellite A350 Touchpad does not work ok (unstable system and left button not loaded).

    I tried to make the driver but nothing. No problem drivers (conf system). I have the driver for the touchpad stroped and with an external mouse everything is working properly.

    What should I do? Don't you think it's hard or soft the problem. * The touchpad is NEVER worked.*

    Thank you, and sorry for my bad English. :-(

    Hello!

    The touchpad does appear in Device Manager or you have here yellow exclamation points?

    Like Akuma says you can enable or disable the touchpad with FN + F9 key combination.
    Did you check that?

    In the worst cases, you must go to an ASP. It seems to be a hardware malfunction, and this must be checked by a technician of the laptop. Here, you can search the nearest ASP:

  • Satellite L50-A013 - touchpad does not work

    Hi all

    I've had my L50-A013 Satellite for about 7 months now.

    In the last month or so I started to have problems with the touchpad, freezing and does not not my contact.
    This lasted a few minutes at a time, then came the back of its own accord, almost like a very long latency period.
    This morning, however, I turned on my laptop and the touchpad does not work.

    Device Manager does not display a mouse or pointing device at all until I attach a mouse USB.
    By pressing the key that normally activates / deactivates the touchpad does not work - nothing changes and the light does not turn on in both positions.

    I tried reinstalling the drivers without result, and windows is no update that might help (or any recently that might have caused the problem).

    If anyone has any other ideas for what I can try, it would be amazing.
    The laptop is under warranty so I can hopefully get it fixed, but if possible I would really do not have to go without a computer until it's settled.

    Thank you all for your time,
    -Sase

    Hi Sase

    It is not easy to say what the problem is, but I can imagine that there is hardware problem. Perhaps touchpad loses the connection to the motherboard. I mean if this piece of hardware is not detected I can imagine this scenario.

    Of course best test you can do now is to reinstall OS and test functionality with the factory settings, but will delete your actual configuration of OS and software pre-installed.

    If this kind of test is possible do. If not, I think you must contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They have special diagnostic tools and they can check it for you.

    Hello

    You can use the USB attached external mouse?
    Please check this...
    Also FN + F5 (or just F5) would enable and disable the touchpad.

    In which case it won't work, please try to reinstall the driver for the touchpad.
    The driver can be downloaded from the Toshiba UE driver page.

  • Satellite P300D - touchpad does not work

    I have a Satellite P300D-131 with Windows 7 64 bit. The touchpad does not work.

    Activation with Fn + F9 has no effect. The device manager says that the device is functioning.
    Who knows the reason? Could be a driver problem.

    Where can I get a driver appropriate? I already searched the Download Center of Toshiba software without success.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to offer a diagnosis in order to answer your question may be some speculation on the possible reasons.

    In your ad, it is not clear since when you have this problem.

    I installed Win7 64 bit on several laptops P300 and everything was ok.
    Since when you have this problem? I can't imagine touchpad doesn't work all the time since when you use Win7.

    It is interesting that I ve seen that Windows update offers updates of the driver Synaptics listed as optional update. Perhaps you have it installed?

    Did you install driver touchpad of Toshiba download page? If Yes, have you tried to remove it and test the features?

    Hello

    I have no idea why the touchpad does not work yet, you have installed the good drivers do you have?

    Are you sure that the touchpad is not disabled? Usually, you can disable the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination. Check it out.

    The P205 Sat is very similar to the European model Toshiba Satellite P200.

    Maybe you can download two Touchpad (Alps Electric and Synaptics) drivers from the Toshiba European page choose either of the P200 series and check the drivers!

  • Satellite L40 - 18W - Touchpad does not work

    Hey guys...

    I have Toshiba Satellite L40 - 18W, bought in the Middle East, and unfortunately its touchpad does not work... I checked and double checked all the possible places, so anything that is disabled or misconfigured but found nothing.

    As there are quite a few errors in the operating system I formatted my hard drive and install WXP Prof, installed all the drivers, but the touchpad is not always works. I'm very confused as before and after formatting the pointer moves a little when I use the touch pad at the beginning of the UPA start? ¦

    Help, please...

    The best audit is to install the operating system with the original Toshiba recovery image and test it with the factory settings. In this case touchpad should work fine. Otherwise, contact the service and leave check your laptop.

    Sorry, but I don't see another solution for you.
