Hi,
you can also use Jupiter
(http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/jupiter-ubuntu-ppa-hardware-and-power.html) to
enable/disable the touchpad.

Hi,
to get the touchpad working i followed this instruction from this site:
http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/__index.php/2011/05/24/better-__clickpad-support-for-ubuntu-__11-04/
<http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/index.php/2011/05/24/better-clickpad-support-for-ubuntu-11-04/>
But I had still the problem that while I am typing I touch accidentally the
clickpad and the cursor lands somewhere.
The option "disable touchpad while typing" didn't work.
The solution is to enable the touchpad in gnome:
<code>
gconftool-2 --set --type boolean
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/__touchpad/touchpad_enabled true
</code>
Now the touchpad is disabled while typing.
For disabling the touchpad i used this shellscript:
<code>
# toggle synaptic touchpad on/off
# credits http://ubuntuforums.org/__showthread.php?t=1675603
<http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1675603>
SYNSTATE=$(xinput list-props "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse" | grep Enabled |
grep -Eo '.$')
if [ $SYNSTATE = 0 ]; then xinput set-int-prop "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse"
"Device Enabled" 8 1
else xinput set-int-prop "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse" "Device Enabled" 8 0; fi
</code>
and binded it with gnome-keybinding-properties to a shortcut.
regards
gyhor
