I just installed 14.04 Trusty Tahr 64-bit desktop on a Toshiba laptop with a Synaptics touch-pad, and I'm having the same issue. I NEVER use the touchpad, and in Windows it automatically disables it when a USB mouse is present. In Unity I go in and disable the touchpad but it's re- enabled when I reboot.
I'm tempted to go digging in the UEFI settings and see if I can disable it there... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283863 Title: disabling touchpad is not persistent To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1283863/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
