Fedora 26--Trackpad Stops Working

I recently updated my laptop from Fedora 25 to 26. After the update, sometimes, usually after I close the lid, the trackpad stops working entirely. I can't move the pointer, click, or scroll. Currently, I'm just restarting my computer from the terminal when this happens, which is very annoying. I've tried the following: - Boot the Fedora 25 kernel from Grub - Install the old mouse driver (xorg-x11-drv-synaptics-legacy) - Remove psmouse from the kernel and add it back (it says modprobe: FATAL: Module psmouse is builtin.) None of these have worked. Anyone know how to fix this? **EDIT:** Here is the output of dmesg | grep mouse after it has frozen: [ 0.819297] mousedev: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice [ 1.585896] psmouse serio1: synaptics: queried max coordinates: x [..5664], y [..4708] [ 1.612130] psmouse serio1: synaptics: queried min coordinates: x [1276..], y [1146..] [ 1.664277] psmouse serio1: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 8.2, id: 0x1e2a1, caps: 0xf00623/0x840300/0x12e800/0x400000, board id: 3096, fw id: 2430125 [ 1455.599299] psmouse serio1: Failed to disable mouse on isa0060/serio1 [ 1457.549499] psmouse serio1: synaptics: queried max coordinates: x [..5664], y [..4708] [ 1457.575672] psmouse serio1: synaptics: queried min coordinates: x [1276..], y [1146..] [ 1933.961382] psmouse serio1: Failed to disable mouse on isa0060/serio1 [ 1935.980668] psmouse serio1: synaptics: Unable to query device. Also, even if the trackpad doesn't work, a USB mouse still does.
