This is related to, but not the same as issue #868400 - specifically,
there are *not* two syndaemon instances running.
A few bits of extra info:
- I've had this issue before upgrading from oneiric to precise, but only in the
last few months. When I first used oneiric, all was fine.
- "disable touchpad while typing" is switched *off*.
- touchpad-indicator correctly displays whether or not the touchpad is working.
- This is on a thinkpad, and the nipple mouse continues to work. So do external
mice.
- In the login screen prior to starting the desktop, the touchpad *always*
seems to work.
