Public bug reported:
Hello,
I run Ubuntu 15.04 on a newish Lenovo Thinkpad T440s. It has the new
large, solid trackpad that is clickable anywhere, with no defined
buttons. It is easily bumped while typing, creating an almost unusable
experience. There is an option in the Ubuntu Unity system mouse/trackpad
settings to "Disable while typing", which would solve the problem.
However, this does not work. I confirm that there is absolutely no delay
between typing and trackpad activation; in fact I can even move the
trackpad while holding a key down.
A reported workaround is to run:
syndaemon -i 0.8 -d
But this should not be necessary to make users run hacks like this, as it makes
Ubuntu look unprofessional. The Ubuntu system settings option should do what is
claims.
Thanks for looking into this.
