 V13 (was Re: Synaptics touchpad on Dell Vostro V13)

Correct .. Suspend worked fine when the touchpad was a generic mouse.

However, this appears a symptom of the synaptics driver. I was able to overcome it with this script from  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/59867 . 

Placing it in /etc/pm/sleeps.d/ .

#!/bin/sh
#
# Reload the AT keyboard interface.

case "$1" in
        hibernate|suspend)
                rmmod psmouse
                ;;
        thaw|resume)
                modprobe psmouse
                ;;
        *)
                ;;
esac


Also, the inability to shutdown seems to have fixed itself, it is a non issue.

Thanks a lot for reporting back.

And that doesn't happen with the touchpad being only in PS/2 mode, right?
