The bug is in the unity-settings-daemon/plugins/mouse/gsd-mouse- manager.c set_disable_w_typing function.
... g_ptr_array_add (args, "syndaemon"); g_ptr_array_add (args, "-i"); g_ptr_array_add (args, "1.0"); g_ptr_array_add (args, "-t"); g_ptr_array_add (args, "-K"); g_ptr_array_add (args, "-R"); g_ptr_array_add (args, NULL); ... The line with "-t" argument should be removed. When kill unity-settings- daemon started syndaemon and restart it without the "-t" argument, the cursor behavior while typing works as expected. ** Package changed: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) => unity-settings- daemon (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1351772 Title: "disable touchpad while typing" doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1351772/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
