Description:
Today, my touchpad suddenly stops working correctly. I still can move the mouse but : - i've got a jumpy cursor - no more tapping - no more edge scrolling Additional info: * xf86-input-evdev 2.6.0-2 (xorg19 version) * xf86-input-synaptics 1.4.0-1 (xorg19 version) * Recent updates : [2011-04-19 15:24] upgraded udev (166-2 -> 167-1) [2011-04-21 13:08] upgraded file (5.05-2 -> 5.06-1) [2011-04-21 13:08] upgraded less (436-2 -> 443-1) [2011-04-21 13:08] upgraded mpfr (3.0.0.p8-1 -> 3.0.1-1) [2011-04-21 13:20] upgraded binutils-multilib (2.21-4 -> 2.21-6) [2011-04-21 13:20] upgraded lib32-glibc (2.13-4 -> 2.13-5) [2011-04-21 13:20] upgraded lib32-gcc-libs (4.5.2-6 -> 4.6.0-3) [2011-04-21 13:20] upgraded gcc-libs-multilib (4.5.2-6 -> 4.6.0-3) [2011-04-21 13:20] upgraded gcc-multilib (4.5.2-6 -> 4.6.0-3) [2011-04-21 20:06] upgraded ethtool (2.6.38-1 -> 1:2.6.38-1) [2011-04-21 20:06] upgraded nautilus-elementary (162-2 -> 169-1) [2011-04-22 09:45] upgraded mkvtoolnix (4.6.0-1 -> 4.7.0-1) [2011-04-22 09:48] upgraded virtualbox-ext-oracle (4.0.4-2 -> 4.0.6-1) [2011-04-22 09:53] upgraded virtualbox_bin (4.0.4-3 -> 4.0.6-1) (it was working fine yesterday) grep "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log returns : [ 19.976] (EE) HDA Intel Headphone Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.

Could someone please change [xf86-input-synaptics] to [udev] ? Thx
It's also happening with others driver, in my case:

downgrade udev
Thanks!
But udev needs an update
But for me, the issue seems be started after last gnutls (2.12.3-1) upgrade.
Optionally for downgrades:

Thank you!
However, when rolling back to udev-167 it worked fine.
actions:
# pacman -S gperf pkg-config
$ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-168.tar.gz
$ tar -xvf udev-168.tar.gz
$ cd udev-168
$ ./configure
$ make
# rm /sbin/udevd
# make install
< reboot... dammit it did not help >
$ cd udev-168
# make uninstall
# pacman -S udev
< reboot... oh shi- it works with 167! >
maybe it's /lib/udev/rules.d/ or /etc/udev/rules.d/ which made the trick, since 'pacman -Qlq udev | grep rules' is different from 'ls /etc/udev/rules.d/ -1' and 'ls /lib/udev/rules.d/ -1', although udev-168 installed with '/usr' prefix. Anyway, I attach /lib/udev/rules.d/ as lib_rules and /etc/udev/rules.d/ as etc_rules. Regards
