There are a few ways to auto-disable touchpad while you type. I don't
remember the one installed on my laptop (it's in the office) but found
"touchfreeze" on Ubunutu 9.04 which seems to achieve the same - on my
laptop this was a life saver:

Description: tray icon that disables your touchpad while typing
 Touchfreeze docks in your system tray and disables your touchpad
 while typing. It re-enables your touchpad when typing stops, using a
 configurable delay time.

Thanks for the review. It was a very interesting and useful read.

Cheers,
