Hi Doug, Thanks for your help. I installed synaptiks, and I configured it as you said. Unfortunately it seems not to care about bluetooth mice. But it was good anyway, because now I have a checkbox on my systray to turn on/off touchpad, besides opening a terminal and typing the command. Morel, I'll still figure out how to link a command (script) to FN+F3 key, to automate this. Regards, Beco -- Dr Beco A.I. researcher "My psychiatrist told me I was crazy.
