Hi I think a posible solution for this is to create a udev rule that when an usb device recognized as a mouse runs the synclient TouchpadOff=1 command, and when unplugged does the opposite.
I'm not sure if it's easy to grep the udev info to recognize the mouse. This would be great for laptops without a disable touchpad button (for instance mac's) thanks -- The Synaptic Touchpad is not disabled automatically when an external mouse is attached. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116919 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
