Hi,

I ran

Code:

sudo rmmod psmouse

and got

Code:

rmmod: ERROR: module psmouse is not currently loaded

Then

Code:

sudo modprobe mouse

Code:

modprobe: FATAL: Module mouse not found in directory /lib/modules/4.10.0-27-generic

and last but not least

Code:

modprobe -r mouse

Code:

modprobe: FATAL: Module mouse not found

Touchpad is not working. I messed up. Please,how to reverse it all?

I don't think there is a module called "mouse". But you could try loading "psmouse". But first, what are you trying to do? Why are you running those commands?
