** Description changed: Binary package hint: xfree86-driver-synaptics System: Acer Aspire 5738G On this model, the button to en-/disable the touchpad has moved from FN+F7 to an extra key. With this key on Ubuntu 9.04, you can switch the touchpad off - BUT NOT ON AGAIN. I get a keycode 200 using: $ xev | grep keycode. dmesg and /var/log/messages won't report anything. attached: cat Xorg.0.log | grep -i synaptics More info can be found on the wiki page i just opend (the template is VERY outdated btw): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerAspire5738 This is VERY annoying. You need to watch you finges, so they don't accidently hit the touchpad button.
