Bug description:
One of the only reasons I switched from the old to the new Ubuntu EEE was to see if the touchpad drivers had been properly updated. They haven't. Though the touchpad works, it's almost impossible to turn the touchpad off while typing (which is extremely important to anyone like me who has big hands and uses the EEE for serious writing).
