I admit that I am very new to using a terminal for solutions, but since updating my Ubuntu to 18.04 the touchpad on my laptop has not been responding. I have searched, with the greatest lists of answers coming from this question on this same website:
Touchpad not working on Ubuntu 18.04
i worked my way through answers 13, 6 and 1 but none have solved my problem. I looked into the same commands by the person in the above question and I have similar results. I can find the touchpad on a command search:
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0007 Version=01b1 N: Name="SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input6 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse0 event5 B: PROP=5 B: EV=b B: KEY=e520 610000 0 0 0 0 B: ABS=660800011000003
but no amount of changing folder names on grub or installing xserver has solved my problem. The touchpad was working fine until the most recent update I completed, which was about 2 days ago.
I have a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series with Ubuntu 18.04.03.
