[Bug 27541] Re: Disable Touchpad while typing doesn't work consistently - hardware-specific?
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 240738 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240738 Few days ago a received an information, that I'm not able to find now, that the problem could be caused by the AC adapter in use with certain laptops and it was suggested to try working only with internal battery (AC adapter disconnected). I did several tests and I verified that for my Acer Aspire 8530 it's true! In other words, if I encounter touch-pad crazy problems, I disconnect the AC adapter and the touch-pad works fine. It could be interesting if other laptop users do similar tests. I add also the information that, after a recent automatic update of my Ubuntu 10.10, I am facing problems with the wifi connection and that such problems seem to disappear if I disconnect the AC adapter. Have a good day :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27541 Title: Disable Touchpad while typing doesn't work consistently - hardware- specific?

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 240738 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240738 I'm also affected by this bug, with a macbook pro 6,2. And I also agree that a gconf parameter would be NOT user-friendly. A graphical item, like a numeric value or a slide bar in the touchpad settings box for the time delay after a key press should be the solution, besides fixing the bug why sometimes the delay is not respected.

itismike, i waited till oday to reply to your last comment to have time to monitor my pc Acer Aspire 8530 and now I can say that you are write: according to my experience the issue it is not simply a matter of timing. As a matter of fact I did the test you propose using few times following commands: syndaemon -i 10 -k syndaemon -i 2 -k syndaemon -i 1 -k syndaemon -i 10 -k and I found that occasionally I had no problems but sometimes, for unknown reasons, my cursor jumped repositioning itself to the upper-left area of the textbox (not always exactly in the upper-left corner!). Now, while I am typing, this behaviour happened few times while my terminal showed disable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27541 Title: Disable Touchpad while typing doesn't work consistently - hardware-specific? -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
