Forwarding this bug from Ubuntu reporter Stefan Ebner:

[Problem]
The touchpad surface includes a hot area to enable/disable it, but it does not work in linux.  Perhaps support needs added for it?

[Original Description]
My laptop doesn't have an extra button for disabling/enabling the touchpad.
On the top left corner of the touchpad there is an small area (marked with a white dot) where you have to tap 2 times to disable/enable it. If disabled it shows a orange light.

This doesn't work under ubuntu, also not under oneiric with all updates
installed.

AFAIK, this is part of the clickpad series of touchpads for which we
don't have upstream support yet. Patches circulated on the list a while
ago, but they need finishing

Well, it _does_ work with OpenSuse 11.4. So why can't you implement the
same patch, that is used in OpenSuse 11.4?
