Ubuntu – Touchpad not working after suspend Ubuntu 16.04

touchpadUbuntuxinput

My mousepad is not working after suspend on a Lenovo E460. It used to work perfectly but after this it no longer even appears in xinput. I have tried to plug in a mouse and that works fine.

Edit: Restarting etc. does not make it work again, it is completely gone as of after the suspend.

Best Answer

Editing the grub file from,

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

to,

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i8042.reset i8042.nomux i8042.nopnp i8042.noloop"

then updating grub solved the problem.
