I am currently experimenting with using Ubuntu as a my main OS instead of Windows 7. So far, pretty much everything is working fine, except for an issue that I am having with my touchpad.

I have a Dell XPS 16 (1640) with a Synaptics touchpad. It works out of the box, but it seems that it stops working after returning from hibernation mode.

This problem has also been addressed in an earlier bug, but judging from this bugreport, it should be fixed by now.

I am running the 2.6.35-23-generic-pae kernel.

Any ideas?
