Package: gnome-settings-daemon Followup-For: Bug #675763 This bug is still present in Wheezy and it's a rather serious bug. When I set "Disable touchpad while typing" in the settings, I can't log in anymore ("Something went wrong" fullscreen error message).
Hovewer, it's been fixed in Ubuntu (LP: #1007588). Here is the modified patch for Debian.
