Can you give a solution for this problem. My touch pad stopped working all of a sudden in 12.04. I think its a bug. Please give a solution.

If you don'h have donf-editor install it:

sudo apt-get install dconf-tools

open dconf-editor

Then go to setting-->org-->gnome-->settings-daemon-->peripherals-->touchpad

and set touchpad-enabled to true
