Hi,
By reducing the upstream default 2 sec timout, this fix introduces a
severe usability issue for macbook pro users like me. See lp #962958.
Getting to your original bug:
"1.) Type a few key strokes.
2.) Try to move the cursor using the touchpad."
That issue can be easily fixed by adding -t o
This bug was fixed in the package gnome-settings-daemon - 3.1.5-0ubuntu3

* debian/gnome-settings-daemon.gsettings-override:
- Enable GConf bridge plugin by default
* debian/patches/10_smaller_syndaemon_timeout.pat
This is very bad... it wasn't noticeable at the .5 second delay, and
helped alot! In fact, it's one of my favorite features of GNOME, but if
this isn't changed.. I'm going to be mad.

Seems logical to keep the 0.5s decrease patch as a workaround until the
proper underlying patches are identified.
I suppose they'll eventually bubble up in future releases of things, so
you could leave the workaround in place for oneiric with plan to test
reverting it in oneiric+1 to see if it's s
Oliver, we're not removing that setting. I uploaded a g-s-d patch to
decrease the delay for syndaemon, from 2 seconds, the default one, to
0.5s. But I was told that would break it for other users, and that there
were some patches in the xorg and kernel mailing lists (sorry Bryce,
don't have those p
@Rodrigo: palm detection will never be 100% reliable with every touchpad
driver and/or hardware. Please do not remove the "Disable touchpad while
typing".
Have a look at the related bug 240738 and my comment 27 about Elantech
touchpads.

So, the 2 seconds delay is on purpose, because it breaks this feature
for other people. So the real solution to this bug is to get the
synaptics (on xorg and kernel input mailing lists) patches merged in so
that palm detection works properly and we can remove the code altogether

The way it used to work is that the touchpad was locked *while* typing
(by default) and moving the cursor with the touchpad after you finished
typing would typically not include any delay. What has changed is that
gnome-settings-daemon doesn't even think about taking the lock off until
you *try to
Before, in gnome 2.32, how did it work? (sorry, don't have any 2.32
installation to test). I don't see as a very important issue really, as
it's worst to have the touchpad being active and moved by mistake while
typing.
So, we could set the gsettings to be FALSE by default, but I'm sure it
will pi

This is a major usability issue and this bug renders the touchpad nearly
unusable with a very poor user experience.

This could be considered low importance if the setting that triggers it
wasn't default. Try using a laptop with a touchpad with this problem and
tell me if it's still Low importance for being fixed... A lot of people
who usually use their laptop with only the touchpad will not be happy

The X stack is working as expected; gnome-settings-daemon is disabling
the touchpad while typing, and then re-enabling it after a couple of
seconds inactivity.
Moving to gnome-control-center where this behaviour is controlled. We
might want to change the default if this is sufficiently objectiona
Forgot to add some extra info yesterday that this happens both in Unity
2D and 3D so is likely an Xorg problem.

Thanks for your report.
Confirmed in Oneiric. The workaround is to disable 'Disable Touchpad
while typing' in the touchpad preferences (run 'gnome-control-center
mouse', and select tab 'Touchpad' )
