# Reload the intel_quicki2c driver to fix a dead trackpad.
# The THC (Touch Host Controller) can fail to initialize interrupts
# during boot or after suspend, leaving the trackpad registered but
# not delivering events.
# Reset the trackpad by unbinding and rebinding its driver.
# Covers both driver paths:
# - i2c_hid_acpi (DesignWare I2C, e.g. XPS 14/16 Synaptics trackpad)
# - intel_quicki2c (THC Touch Host Controller)
sudo modprobe -r intel_quicki2c && sudo modprobe intel_quicki2c
# Try i2c_hid_acpi path (DesignWare I2C trackpads)
