I installed Ubuntu 11.10 on my HP laptop and among some problems, one of which I'm trying to solve is the touchpad problem. It's working, but how can I turn on/off it?



In SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (which was preinstalled) and Windows, the touchpad is enabled/disabled by touching the left upper corner, when small diode is situated. In Ubuntu, I touched that area many times, but nothing happened.



Do anybody know how to solve the problem?

Problem is still unsolved.



But if nobody has any thoughts about how to fix that - here is a possible solutions to help those, who can see this topic (guys from russian linux forums helped me).



You can type in your console:



syndaemon -t -i 2 -d 


This means, that your touchpad will be disabled until 2 seconds after your typing will passed.



But there is a way to fix problems with turning offon your touchpad and with enabling LED works properly... But this way is complicated.
You must download this patches http://abhinandh.com/post/4336662463/getting-the-double-tap-on-the-led-to-disable-touchpad
One patch is for kernel and one for xorg server. Also you have to change function parameters.
