>From the Red Hat group, I found that they claimed it was a result of the
"acer-wmi" driver.  Blacklisting this driver enabled the touchpad for me
in Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10.

After blacklisting and restarting, pressing Fn-F7 once enabled the
touchpad, and it was enabled on startup every time. The only annoyance
to this solution is that the visuals are no longer displayed when
toggling the touchpad.
