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 Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27541 Title: Disable Touchpad while typing doesn't work consistently - hardware-specific? -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
