Andre: You're right, my notebook has a keyboard shorcut *(Fn + Esc)* to enable/disable the touchpad. Now, what do you mean by "*maybe your device is not logically diconnected to the system*"? How do I realize of that and what should I do? I've pressed the shorcut several times after doing all what you've suggested me and it doesn't work yet. I don't have any led to realize if it is on/off... with the touchpad working, you just realize by trying to move it: if it moves is enabled, and disabled if doesn't.
I've checked both files owner and permissions with *ls -l* command and everything is the way you mentioned it should be: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27 nov 26 12:02 /etc/modprobe.d/touchpad.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1699 nov 27 21:55 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf I can't realize what am I doing wrong... later I'll tell you all, step by step, what I've made... Maybe one of you realizes where the mistake is. Once again, thank you all for your help... I still cannot solve it but I'm learning a lot because of your support and contributions (commentaries, links to read...)
