Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
My disable button for my Synaptics touchpad has never worked correctly in Ubuntu. From the start the disable button has never functioned. I managed to find a (sort of) fix to get the button to disable, and that was to change the keybindings, the default value in gconf-editor did not correspond to the actual shortcut key. The default value was XF86TouchpadToggle, however when I created a keyboard shortcut the disable button registers as Help, so I changed the value of the touchpad key binding in gconf-editor and my touchpad works, but the problem is, I have to press the disable button twice to get it to disable and twice to re-neable it again. So I feel that there is more a persistent problem with my machine. My computer is a Compaq Presario CQ60-307EA, with the Synaptics Touchpad.
