I have used the "fix" to turn off the tablet which stops the annoyance, but I then needed 
to add a pointing device. I had a Wacom Graphire (pen and mouse on tablet) that works just 
fine, but isn't terribly portable.

Ideally I'd like to turn off the "tapping" part of the touchpad only. I believe that is 
the source of the problems.

I've not fixed the webcam flip yet. I'm sort of waiting for someone to write a script that 
will do the changes, as I find following recipes very error prone. (I'm willing to help in 
this).

I also added to the wiki that the HDMI doesn't seem to handle audio (it works in Win 7, so 
h/w is OK).
