I had a simular problem on my 1135-S155 , until I hit Fn-f9 and turned on my touch pad.
Does it recognize a usb mouse?

tried fn+f9 before, many times but didnt work, tried a USB wireless mouse it didnt wrk but thn again that usb mouse didnt wrk on XP either,


do i need to add remove anything to the configuration file?

thx

is it detected by kudzu or the hardware browser under system tools. also check your system logs if you can find the device name or if you know the make and model of the touchpad we can help. check the toshiba website.

Is it a synaptics pad? If so try searching these forums for a fix, I'm sure I've seen one somewhere...

Ok, check what is defined in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I have this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection
So then as it boots, in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log, I have bunch of stuff for Mouse0:

(**) |-->Input Device "Mouse0"
....
(II) LoadModule: "mouse"
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/mouse_drv.o
(II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
compiled for 6.7.99.903, module version = 1.0.0
Module class: X.Org XInput Driver
ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 0.4
....
(**) Mouse0: Device: "/dev/input/mice"
(**) Mouse0: Protocol: "IMPS/2"
(**) Option "CorePointer"
(**) Mouse0: Core Pointer
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
(**) Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
(**) Mouse0: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50
(**) Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
(**) Mouse0: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) Mouse0: Buttons: 5


So look for stuff like that.
