Bug Description
On 2.6.27 (I've tested -4 -5 -6), after resume appletouch seems to "gravitate" the pointer to the center of the screen, making it unusable. i.e. it responds to movement, but as soon as I let go of the touchpad the pointer snaps back to the center of the screen...
rmmodding and re-modprobing the module works, and thanks to input hotplugging touchpad parameters survive this operation.
If it cannot be fixed, perhaps we should add this as a quirk to pm-utils resume?
This is a Macbook 3,1 and dmesg reports the mouse as:
[ 22.332438] appletouch: Geyser mode initialized.
[ 22.332508] input: appletouch as /devices/

I see this problem on a macbook 2,1 on

I did not initially see the problem due to Bug #292139.
