I have a Lenovo Ideapad U400 with an odd touchpad. Can't find a way to disable it when a mouse is plugged in. The function key (F6 on the keyboard) doesn't toggle on/off as it does in windows. Using Ubuntu 12.04 system settings, there is no touchpad found - it shows up only as a mouse. When I less /proc/bus/input/devices the only pointing device that appears shows up as NAME="ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse" instead of something like NAME="SynPS/2 Synaptics Touchpad". When I plug in a USB mouse nothing changes in proc and both the mouse and the touchpad work. qsynaptics or other synclient stuff has not worked because there is no touchpad detected. This doesn't seem to be a synaptics touchpad. Anyone have any ideas on how to shut it off?
