The Synaptics-touchpad on my ThinkPad L580 doesn't work with Ubuntu (Mate) 19.04, even though I've followed instructions that seem to have worked for other people in the past.



In the following snippets there is a Microsoft USB-mouse attached.

          According to this seemingly identical bug report on launchpad you can fix this by passing



          psmouse.elantech_smbus=0


          to the boot options.



          Take a look at How do I add a kernel boot parameter? if you need information as to how to add boot options.
