      Trackpad problems

      While I was coding today my mouse suddenly started to jump around and become unresponsive at times. Then finally it stopped responding to me all together. I rebooted, but it didn't help. I attached a USB Mouse and that works fine.

      HELP!

      Ubuntu 8.04, Acer TravelMate 4010

      well,
      sounds like hardware problem with the laptop trackpad
      (liquid spill / dust, etc.)

      can you open it up and get behind the trackpad surface?

      Nope, actually, now the whole damn thing won't turn on.

      I'm downloading a new install CD with Live. Gonna take off all my files and then reinstall. Uhg, but hey, maybe the wireless will work this time
