Hello guys,

The Touchpad on my new eee901 Linux stopped working properly.

If I start the machine it does not work at all. I then have to re-boot it several times (5-6 attempts) and it works again.

Can anyone help?

Nope. Not had space issues or broken updates.

As for the technical problem, well hopefully if this is a reason, I will hear from somebody with the same problem/solution.

Thanks.

I had a problem which I thought was a bad keyboard on my 1000HD.
Asus tech support was of no direct assistance. Two trips to Asus service and both times they said No Trouble Found.

I finally became suspcious of the touch pad. I downloaded and installed a new touchpad driver from Elan [maker of the touch pad] (this is where I found it)
http://www.emc.com.tw/eng/st_tpn_sp.asp
Mine was excessively sensitive which was causing cursor errors.
I am running Windows XP not Linux so I have no idea if this will help your touchpad problem.

Note that they say their driver will NOT work with non-Elan touchpads
so make sure of the maker of the touch pad on your PC.

Good luck. . .
