syndaemon currently uses a synaptics-only property to disable the touchpad. this property disables the touchpad in-driver. a similar property exists on all devices but that would disable the device completely, potentially interfering with the desktop environment. this would require testing to ensure it doesn't break anything.
other than that, syndaemon would need a commandline switch to let the user specify the device. right now it looks for the synaptics pad, which in your case would not work. if you have patches, I'd likely merge them if there not too invasive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/723786 Title: Syndaemon behavior when no synaptics device is found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/723786/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
