Well, at first it works perfect, but then it stopped. I can use a mouse, but my touchpad doesn't work. if I restart the computer then the touchpad works completely normal, but when I shutdown computer and turn on again the touchpad doesn't work.

I had a similar problem a couple of days ago where my touchpad wasn't working as it should after I suspended Ubuntu.

Try running these commands in terminal:

(If your mouse isn't working just press ctrl+alt+T to open terminal)

First:

sudo modprobe -r psmouse

Second:

sudo modprobe psmouse

If that fixes it, you can write a script that starts whenever you "resume" the computer from being suspended. I write a how-to in this thread

If the above isn't working:

Since you are using a Lenovo laptop (like I am) there might be a chance that installing Synaptics would fix it (I just prefer libinput)

There is a great tutorial on how to do it here

Basically you need to run the following in Terminal:

xinput list

And check under "Virtual Core Pointer" and see if there is an input with "Synaptics" in it's name.

If there is run: 

apt list --installed

And search for xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

If it's not installed, install it by running:

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

Then reboot and hopefully that will fix your problems!
