Touchpad and trackpoint dead with 1.17 on Linux bios

Hello!

I have a laptop of E460, on which I am dual booting Windows 10 Pro and Manjaro Linux (mainly Arch Linux) with the kernel Linux 4.5.2.

Having the same problem as people discuss in the thread E460 keys repeat when 3 seconds , I've been banging my bios to 1.13, 1.16 and yesterday, 1.17 bios, to see if the problem had been solved.

With the 1.17 bios update, my touchpad and trackpoint stopped working under Linux (Windows they work fine). They do not yet appear in/dev/input, and there is no mention of one of them in dmesg, journalctl, /var/log/Xorg.0.log or anywhere.

The touchpad and stick worked fine in the bios 1.13 and 1.16, so I think that there is a regression in 1.17.

Everyone knows this? Can Lenovo, if there is a problem?

Have you tried to reset the default BIOS settings? Then try again.

  • X 220 Touchpad and Trackpoint does not

    Hello

    My 220 x 4290's touchpad, trackpoint and buttons on the keypad touchscreen and buttons trackpoint refuse to work. I'll have to use a USB mouse for now. I tried to update the synaptics driver for the last, which unfortunately did not help.

    At the present time, the system runs Windows 10 (since the last months) with the latest version of the BIOS installed. The touchpad and the trackpoint don't even appear in the Device Manager where they used to show.

    I opened the system to check if the Ribbon for the keyboard and the touchpad cable were both sitting correctly. Reinstalling did not help.

    This spell the end of my x 220? Is it possible to fix this?

    Thank you very much

    Okay, I think that I managed to solve this problem. In the BIOS, I have selected "load setup defaults". When I started in windows the ultranav and paved touch both started working again. Thanks for the help anyway, it is much appreciated.

  • W520 Trackpoint dead, pad and lower buttons OK - reinstalled Driver/utility

    All,

    TrackPoint stopped any reaction and the three buttons "higher" in the space bar don't work. Tab in the configuration of mouse UltraNav Synaptics of Trackpoint pane is greyed out. I reinstalled the driver and "Utility" for UltraNav. The search here and on the web--until now no specific fix.

    I don't know what caused this, but I think that I tried to install a software to enlarge the area under the cursor just now because I had to give a demo of the software in a large room. Well, I remember it is considering, but I don't remember if I ran in fact anything. And I used the machine a lot since then and I can't imagine that I have not tried to navigate dialogs, Explorer, etc., without using the trackpoint.

    So I think it's a very recent change.

    Win7 Pro 64-bit. I am the sole owner. TrackPoint is "enabled" in the BIOS.

    Ideas or suggestions appreciated.

    Continuing to go with bad keyboard (or, possibly, the keyboard cable). Take off the keyboard, and see if the cable is damaged or worn out?

    In addition, stuck TrackPoint mouse buttons will break the touchpad and buttons.

  • HP 15 laptop: problem with the touchpad and the key "stuck."

    Hello!
     
    Last weekend, I have an irritating problem with my HP 15 laptop. Bought two years ago and upgrades to Windows 10 a year ago.
     
    First of all, my touchpad started to not work properly. It "freezes" and I can't use it until I click the ESC key, but it doesn't last and "freezes" again a few seconds later. Then, everytime I open a window where there is a text box (Start menu, edge browser, Control Panel, etc.), the number 5 is entered automatically and permanently, as if the button 5 has been blocked. I did a quick check and button 5 do not seem physically stuck.
     
    Yesterday, I restored the system to the factory settings, so I'm back to 8.1 for Windows and then upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to work fine, but this morning, the problem was back. Is there something I can do? What is the problem caused by Windows 10 or the computer? Should I restore it to Windows 8.1? Everything worked great til last weekend, I don't know what that was.
     
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Welcome to the HP support community @gouch3.

    I understand that you have a problem with the keyboard and the touchpad on your laptop from HP 15.

    Have you tried to use a keyboard external and mouse at all?

    Have you tried to go to Safe Mode to see if the problems persist in there?

    Have you tried to perform a material or forced reset Reset?

    Did you do a test of material?

    Have you updated your drivers?

    It could be a driver problem to be able to look at that for you, I need your model number. I wish I could give you an answer or not, but at this point without the troubleshooting results and the model number, it is difficult for me to say.

    I can say that if everything works in point 8.1 of Windows without problem, the driver TROUBLESHOOTING is a great place to start. Please try to follow these steps for the keyboard and the touchpad of troubleshooting:

    • Beginning
    • Search for Device Manager
    • Search results, open Device Manager.
    • Click on display
    • Show hidden devices.
    • Click the arrow next to keyboards.
    • Right click on the name of the keyboard device.
    • Select uninstall.
    • Continue deleting the names of devices in the category keyboards until the feature of all the names have been uninstalled.
    • Restart the laptop twice.

    Touchpad:

    • Type of research, "Device Manager."
    • Click on Device Manager,
    • Expand mice and other pointing devices.
    • Right click on the TouchPad,
    • Click on uninstall.
    • Restart the computer laptop twice,
    • Reinstall the TouchPad card.

    I found a document of troubleshooting for you to try also called Portable keyboard troubleshooting. Please be sure to follow the steps described in this document.

    The best document I have for TouchPad problems is the use and troubleshooting of the TouchPad and ClickPad document. 

    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant, if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers that need to put up-to-date.

  • Left click and double tapping with touchpad does not.

    has been using my computer earlier and left click (with the click button) and clicking on double tapping with the touchpad its self gradually ceased to work in the course of half an hour or two.  I did a system before the problem happened and check the drivers but everything is perfect.  I have a mouse and left-click on it works.  I'm really just ideas on how to fix this problem if any help would be great.

    P.S. If you have any help please try to be specific I'm not terribly good at working with computers.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You may have a hardware problem and need a good computer shop (no leeks and peaks at)
    a Best Buy or a big box store) or the technical support of the system manufacturer.

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touch pad-
    The driver tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
    (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
    RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB.

    Here is the similar procedure in XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific
    device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers to install or reinstall.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    ================================================

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad
    entries) and some have a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    I hope this helps.

    Inadvertently, I moved my cursor using the touchpad and it decreased my policy and I can't get it for a larger size. my daughter thinks it has something to do with scrolling

    You did not mention this program what happens to, but even in the case of the office, there are standard methods to adjust the zoom level with the keyboard.

    Press Ctrl and more (e, g +) together to increase the zoom level and Ctrl and less (for example) - all to reduce. The keys more or less can be those at the top of the classic (for example to the left of the back) keys or the numeric keypad if you have one.
    Alternatively, you can hold down the CtrI down while turning the scroll of the mouse wheel to adjust the zoom level of the window that the cursor of the mouse is on.
    Many programs have a slider or box to adjust the zoom level. It is usually at the bottom right of the application window. Similar zoom adjustments may be able to make the menu display, Zoom the program.
  • Touchpad and accupoint does not not on Tecra S1

    Hello

    After you install an external mouse from Logitech (initially connected through the PS/2 port, later via USB) the touchpad and accupoint simply refuse to work. I tried with Fn + F9 to turn on / turn off, but no result.

    Working both on W2K3 and WXPP (laptop a multiboot configuration) where the situation is the same. Hope this provides enough information to everyone, the drivers are up to date. It starts to look like a hardware problem, but if anyone has had the same problem and solved in the configuration of the software, please let me know.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's very strange. I also have home wireless keyboard and mouse from Logitech and it works perfectly. Usually with Logitech keyboard or mouse must be delivered the driver CD. Have you installed it? If you delete it, can you use portable keyboard correctly?

    Try to come inside the BIOS and check please if you can find the settings for the pointing device. There are a few options. You can change it with the space bar. I don't know, but there must be option called simultaneous or something like that.

    In this case, you can use the internal and external mouse at the same time.

  • Satellite C660-1CN - touchpad do not start with Windows

    Hello
    I have problem with Toshiba Satellite C660 - 1CN PSC0QE.

    Touchpad do not start with Windows 7 Home Premium.
    All the drivers are up to date.
    BIOS - lastest.

    After logon, I need to click on * double * "FN + F9" and after it is OK until the next reboot.

    I tried:
    several drivers of Synaptics - no change.
    Reinstall Windows - no change.
    Mini Windows XP Hiren - no work.
    Default BIOS - no change

    After that I installed 'toshiba value added package' I can't turn on the touch pad at all.

    To be honest, I never heard the show. According to specification for laptop, your laptop came with Win7 home premium 64-bit. With factory settings touchpad should be activated after the OS has started.
    I can read you have reinstalled Windows. Have you reinstalled with the original recovery image and tested with factory settings?

  • Satellite L300 - Vista - Touchpad and USB mouse does not.

    Hello

    Well well after hours of trying allsorts, I post here...

    Been given the laptop for repair as the touchpad no longer. No problem "I thought", simply plug a mouse usb to help me get around and re - install the touchpad... what a joke.

    On the right, the USB mouse is recognized as a hid device and work, according to the Manager of devices, but not when you move it... nothing...
    The Touchpad is listed as a Synaptics ps/2 touchpad and signals a Code 10 in section mouse device as well as listed as a hid and fully functional usb mouse Manager.

    Right... I have...
    Listed all devices, even the hidden nonpresent (devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices) and removed everything only account of any mouse, keyboards, etc...
    uninstalled the software synaptics via the program Panel.
    Restarted the laptop, and it starts with the touchpad is ranked again code 10 with the version of windows drivers.
    Drivers up to date using two different files of Toshiba for the touchpad, still Code 10
    Still, the USB mouse does not either.

    Someone enlighten me please on a fix for this...

    Hello

    Really strange what s my friend because normally a touchpad driver update should solve the problem.

    In any case, have you ever tried to use the Toshiba Recovery disk? Maybe it s just a software problem and a few important Windows files are destroyed or don t work properly. Reinstall Windows using the recovery disk Toshiba takes only a few minutes and there are already all the drivers and tools integrated. With these parameters (factory settings), the touchpad should work properly, and if not the touchpad or the motherboard needs to be replaced maybe.

    Good bye

  • Tecra M3 - touchpad does not work with Windows 7

    I have a Tecra M3 I've updgraded to Windows 7. The touchpad does not work.
    The Web of Toshiba site has a Windows 7 drivers for this model. I tried install the driver of the touchpad and PVAT from the A11 model but still cannot make it work.

    Can anyone help? The audio is not working either.

    This old Tecra is not supported for Vista, so it can be difficult to find the correct drivers.
    I can see Tecra M4 is supported for 32-bit Vista, so use this with Win7 32-bit Vista driver in the hope that this will work.

    Audio driver? Let Win7 look good pilot. By the way: your Tecra has AnalogDevices AD1981B audio chip inside. Try to find the right driver Googling autour.

  • Electric circuit of Satellite A500 - 1 GM touch touchpad and USB box

    It is intermittent, but I seem to be able to create a current through my fingers of two buttons on the front of the touchpad.

    Current configuration of the plug is like this:
    -Dispatcher 4, including plugged in the laptop and plugged in an external hard drive
    -IF the drive is connected, but NOT connected to the computer with the USB cable, touch the buttons on the touchpad and the external hard drive metal case creates a circuit.
    -This circuit can be bypassed by connecting the USB cable to the laptop.
    -This circuit can be recreated by unplgging the laptop to the power grid.

    The sensation of the electric circuit is a buzzing, tingling through my fingers at the point of contact with the touchpad buttons.
    Using my fingers on the buttons, the circuit can be felt stronger.

    Why does this happen? How are the touch pad buttons connected to food?
    How can I get this repaired?

    T.Smith

    Hello

    I think that happens because of the grounding.
    [Wikipedia on the ground (electricity): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground _ (electricity)]

    If the external HARD disk is not connected to the computer via a USB cable there is no conduction and grounded. The same phenomenon occurs when the AC adapter should be disconnected.

    I think that the insulation of your HARD drive is not good and I recommend you contact the dealer or the HARD drive support team.

  • Touchpad and bluetooth mouse on the Satellite P200-144 sensitivity

    I have a P200-144, with the Synaptics touchpad.
    I have also a Toshiba bluetooth mouse (the little mini one, useful for travel, don't know the model number).

    The problem is the difference in sensitivity between these two: for the touchpad, I need the speed of the pointer to about 80-90% in the mouse control panel in Windows (Vista Home Premium); the bluetooth mouse, to be down by about 20%.

    This allows using these two devices the boring time even if we need to adjust the sensitivity If you switch between them (which, given that they are both Toshiba devices, would have thought you they would consider the synergy).

    Is anyway to control the sensitivity per unit?

    Hello

    AFAIK, you can configure the touchpad and mouse settings independent of each other.

    The touchpad should be configured as:
    * Control Panel-> mouse-> device-> settings settings *.

    There you can choose the single options you want to change.
