[Bug 1471804] Re: [Lenovo ThinkPad T530] "Disable while typing" doesn't work

 

Sb, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the
very top line at the top of the page (the release names are irrelevant
for testing, and please do not test the daily folder) following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional
upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where X, Y, and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of
kernel-bug-exists-upstream.

Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this
bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

** Description changed:

  On my Lenovo Thinkpad T530 there is an option in the Ubuntu Unity system
  mouse/trackpad settings to "Disable while typing" which does not work. I
  confirm that there is absolutely no delay between typing and trackpad
  activation; in fact I can even move the trackpad while holding a key
  down.
  
- A reported workaround is to run:
+ A tried the following but it didn't work:
  syndaemon -i 0.8 -d
