Description Mark Ryan 2010-04-18 19:05:13 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.2)
Compiler:          OpenSuse 11.2 Clean install. Updated with WiCD, KDE4.42
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

When I suspend to RAM, and then restart, my mouse cursor is frozen. I have a Synaptic TouchPad in a HP Pavilliion 3065 DX (Bought new fall of 2009). 

Use of the SynClient command prior to suspend shows a Synaptic device. use of SynClient or Syndaemon afterwards returns a message that Synpatic device is not found (I paraphrased this). I ran a command I googled that displayed Touchpad in the output but did not do so after. The command was something like list or ilist (sorry).

This is a clean install with WiCD and an upgrade to KDE 4.4.2. I had the same issue in KDE 4.3.5.

Please contact me with command info if you would like me to provide more detailed info..

This is most likely a problem with the Linux kernel. KDE doesn't handle anything as low-leveled as touchpad inputs. Please report a bug with your Linux distribution.
