Public bug reported:
"Disable touchpad while typing" checkbox in System Settings does not
work on my Asus F5N laptop. The button to disable touchpad does not work
as well. As a workaround I use "syndaemon -i 1 -K -d" command as per
Ubuntu help page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad/
but it does not fix the issue with the said chechbox and hardware
button. I guess it still needs to access shared memory using SHMconfig
option in xorg.conf in which case it is the same bug that has been
around for 3 years starting from Ubuntu 11.10
