Public bug reported:

Hi,

it's quite annoying if typing on a notebook's keyboard the touchpad is
accidently activated and moves the mouse or generates mouse klicks.

On both of my notebook computers I could disable this through keyboard
shortcuts (Fn+ a blue function key, I guess BIOS-driven). Since
upgrading to 14.04 on one of my notebooks this still works, while on the
other (ASUS) it does not work anymore. No way to disable the touchpad,
causing plenty of typing faults due to a magically moving mouse pointer.
