Got here through bug #1576685 and #1351772 (duplicates or very related):
Summary of my experience with disable while typing feature:
(1) The synaptics and libinput package worked well for me in 16.04 (and
previous version to 12.04 I think) up to 17.04 on thinkpads (x2XX to
carbon X1). Currently
@Christopher,
On Thinkpad T450s, there is only one trackpad device in xinput, and it's a PS/2
device.
So, Thinkpad T450s does not need this workaround solution.
The workaround solution is to block the PS/2 trackpad device.
That's why the workaround solution make your trackpad lost function.
I
Thank you! It looks like this:
Thinkpad T450s:
$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2[master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointerid=4[slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ELAN Touchscreen id=9[slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳
@Christopher,
Could you upload the output of the "xinput" of your machine (Thinkpad
T450s)?
We are still debugging why the "disable tap while typing" lost function when
both the i2c and ps/2 devices exist.
For the track pad case, we don't have solution yet.

@lihow731 (#16): This simply makes the track pad not work at all, starting from
bootup.
This is the same effect that the syndaemon workout ends up having, although in
that case it generally doesn't happen immediately.

@Christopher and Tessa,
Yes. you can install it in 16.10 and 17.04 using the same commands in
comment 16.
This package will install a configure file into /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/.
This configure will block the "SynPS/2 Synaptics Touchpad" (You could check it
via "xinput" command).
If your
same question but for 17.04.

On 16.04, could anyone test this solution?
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lihow731/xenial
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oem-workaround-touchpad-block-synps2
Then, re-login Xserver.

Confirmed an issue with 17.04 on a Toshiba Satellite Pro R50 laptop.
Setting using the command: pkill syndaemon ; syndaemon -i 1 -KRd works.

16.04 here. The function DOES work for me, but only if the duration is set to 1
second or longer.
Very strange!

This is still hurting lots of users in 16.04, all we need is a way to
configure syndaemon. How hard is it to make this a start up config?

I can't believe this bug is so old.
Do I have the same? I'm on 16.04 with a Lenovo Thinkpad T450s and I do
not even have a "disable while typing" option in the settings.

Usability is really poor
I can also confirm Valentin's solution.
Toshiba l775d-s7340
Ubuntu 15.10
Cinnamon 2.8.6
A fix for this would alleviate a significant pain point for laptop users
that do a lot of typing.

a seperate bash script which I run at my unity session startup.

As mentioned by Jeremy, removing the -t argument will fix this behavior. To
work around this issue I have unchecked the Disable while typing checkbox and
have added the following command to ~/.xprofile:
syndaemon -i 0.5 -K -R -d
I would love to see this fixed as this seems like a very easy fix.

This came up in 12.04, but comments went off the rails, and it never got
fixed. This is probably a serious usability issue for anyone with a
modern laptop.
