The settings it causes to be used are: syndaemon -d -i 2.0 -K -R -t This only disables taps, which causes the cursor to run wldly around the screen while typing. "Not a problem!" you say? Try using focus follows mouse, especially with auto-raise, then come back and tell me that :-) The correct settings are: syndaemon -d -i 2.0 -K -R This completely disables the touchpad while typing, for two seconds. My workaround was to uncheck the box and add syndaemon, with my parms, to the Startup Applications. This is maybe not a blocker, but I think getting a bug fix out on this sooner rather than later would be good. Putting the workaround in the release notes might also be a good idea. It could save others the hours of research I've put in. 2 seconds also seems a bit long, I'm going to try 1.5 and 1.25 and see how that works out. Let me know if there's any other info you need or anything you'd like me to test. Thanks!
