I tried a solution from #107 at HP mini. On that laptop the bug was 100% reproducible, if as a first thing after reboot you open chromium and start typing. After implementing #107 bug did not happened, or at least it is not 100% reproducible any more. If user checks the "the disable while typing" settings - he ends up with 2 instances of the syndaemon running, but touchpad still works. If you uncheck settings, the later daemon with 0.5 sec disappears. So looks like bug might existed for a long time, but was masked by default setting of 2.0 sec, till debian/patches/10_smaller_syndaemon_timeout.patch were applied to the g-s-d. According to the bug 801763 it happened on 2011-08-22: in the package gnome-settings-daemon - 3.1.5-0ubuntu3
