Hi!
Is there a simple way of configuring Ubuntu to disable the touchpad on
the laptop in case it detects a usb-mouse connected to the computer?

because the Ubuntu team are usually so unreservedly awesome, and have
usually figured out a way to make stuff happen and have actually made

The Ubuntu Studio team is considering shipping Compiz (with a minimal
