According to http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Synaptics_TouchPad_driver_for_X, you can either: * Execute `xinput set-int-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics \ Off" 8 1` at a command prompt (or bind that to a hotkey) * Create a file /etc/X11/xorg.d/*.conf with the contents: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "TouchpadOff" "1" EndSection and restart X. > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
