Touchpad does not work on Sony Vaio VPCF12M1E

Binary package hint: xorg

Touchpad does not work on my Sony Vaio VPCF12M1E.

There is a kernel message about it, which says to add kernel boot argument "i8042.nopnp" to get it to work, which it actually does.

It should probably be forwarded to the kernel team anyway.
Feel free to ask for more information if required.

Hope it helps.
