Killing gnome-settings-daemon resolves the issue for me (pressing fn-f8 turns the touchpad on/off shows on screen notice of it). Killing it a second time turns of some features (including the discussed behaviour) and appearance settings (such as the Unity top bar). After killing it twice and running it once the desired behaviour is retrieved. I did not test the functionality further but it seems that gnome- settings-daemon is run more than once when I log-on.

Well, a quick solution could be this (From ArchLinux wiki page). * Install dconf-tools; * Launch it * Search for: /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/touchpad/ * Check tochpad-enable This solution fixed the problem, in my case at least.

This bug affects me aswell. The touchpad works in lightgdm then it stops working when Unity loads. Worked well with 11.04.

[Bug 804109] Re: can't enable touchpad in Ubuntu 11.10
I think this is a bug in gnome-settings-daemon. Here's why: The touchpad on Thinkpads (see /etc/acpi/events/lenovo-touchpad) is toggled by /etc/acpi/asus-touchpad.sh. On my R400, pressing Fn+F8 successfully changes the value of the Synaptics Off (269) xinput property. The Device Enabled (132) property, however, is set to 0, so the touchpad is disabled for some reason, but enabling it by xinput set-int-prop 11 Device Enabled 8 1 doesn't work when the gnome-settings-daemon is running. If I kill it, I can enable the device through xinput set-int-prop, and then the Fn+F8 shortcut works as expected.

[Bug 804109] Re: can't enable touchpad in Ubuntu 11.10
I'm not sure exactly which devices we're talking about. For me, trackpad and touchpad are synonymous. My working assumption is that the built-in trackpads are working for people, but the Apple Magic Trackpad is not. The bug referenced by Joshua in comment #16 is a previous bug that was fixed in Natty. There is a new bug that cropped up in Oneiric. That is being tracked in bug #842612. The fix has been committed to the Oneiric kernel repo, but it has not been released yet. The next kernel upload, which I think will happen this week, will include the fix. If that is the issue people are having, please mark this bug as a duplicate of 842612. Otherwise, please provide information on what devices are working and not working, and attach copies of /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg.
