[Bug 18874] Re: synaptic touchpad: can't turn it off.
You should be able to turn the touchpad off using xinput. The new xserver allows changing input device properties at runtime. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- synaptic touchpad: can't turn it off. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/18874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release?

So, then is this a ksynaptics issue after all? ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- synaptic touchpad: can't turn it off. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/18874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Richard, I do not believe that that's the issue. As soon as I read your message I took a look at my xorg.conf file. There's already a Option "SHMConfig" "on" entry in it and the "toggle touchpad" keyboard button still does nothing. -- synaptic touchpad: can't turn it off. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/18874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Actually this is a Xorg issue. If you do not set the following option in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, then you cannot disable the touchpad.

Corrrection: it does indeed work but I believe that there is somekind of problem with ksynaptics' interface.
