Ok, that bug is confusing and mixing several bugs and issues:

- the acpi-support escaping issue described in comment #37 seems to have been addressed since
- the "touchpad stop working after some time" from comment #62 should be fixed in precise
- the other comments seem an issue when the touchpad doesn't work by default

The bug description mentions "trackpad" and "touchpad", what's the difference for those. Do the people having the issue have a rectangle zone bellow their keyboard and a small round device in the middle of the keyboard? Is the issue specific to the flat rectangle area there?

If you still get the issue in precise could you:
- describe your available devices
- describe exactly what issue you get
- run "xinput", note the
