Hello,
I was using synaptics (syndaemon -d -i 1) for long time with the old
notebook that had synaptic touchpad (Dell E6500). Now I have Lenovo
Thinkpad T431s, which has clickpad built-in. Even if using
syndaemon -d -i 1.0 -R
I often get the cursor unintentionally moved in the window I am writing
in. Apparently, syndaemon does not fully disable the clickpad for the
specified time. On the other hand, if I do
synclient TouchpadOff=1
then the clickpad really get disabled, leaving only active clicks. I use
this feature within udev when plugging-in external mouse
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics#Disable_touchpad_upon_external_mouse_detection,
but I guess syndaemon could be extended to "switch off completely" the
touchpad for the specified time. Could this be implemented, or do you
see another way to avoid unintentional cursor moves & clicks resulting
in writing somewhere else?
Thanks a lot for any hint,
best regards,
Tomas
