Thanks for your report. Your idea might get more attention and have the possibility of being implemented if you would submit a specification for this.
You should first check whether it already exists at the Ubuntu specs page (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+specs) in Launchpad. If that is the case, feel free to contact the drafter of that spec about your comments/suggestions. Otherwise you can start writing a spec following the steps described in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureSpecifications. ** Bug 55235 has been marked a duplicate of this bug ** Changed in: xorg-driver-synaptics (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- Touchpad blocking while typing https://launchpad.net/bugs/27541 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
