In Comment #196, If your touchpad is switched on then TouchpadOff should be zero, but your synclient -l output shows it to be 1, meaning the touchpad is Off.

It is possible to have the touchpad disabled with the LED off and vice-versa by manually changing TouchpadOff, which doesn't seem to affect the LED.

@Mohegan
Would it be worthwhile modifying the TouchpadOff logic to turn on the LED when the touchpad is off, and vice-versa?

@Mohegan
LEDStatus in my case is always zero. Regardless of whether the touchpad is on or off, or whether I turn it on or off by double-tapping the LED or setting TouchpadOff manually, LEDStatus never changes from zero. I can, however, change LEDStatus manually with synclient and that does turn the LED on and off, although without enabling/disabling the touchpad.
