Mouse and trackpad stopped working on an Asus Eee1215n
I have an Asus Eee 1215n.
I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 and the USB mouse and trackpad just stopped working. What could've caused that? How do I go about debugging it?

I'd hit up your /var/log/Xorg.0.log first and look for errors pertaining to your mouse. See if there are any EE lines that give any clues.

do you use lightdm? give gdm a try
sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
and choose gdm as default.
I hope this helps anyone.
