Bug Description

Binary package hint: ksynaptics

hello!

In edgy, ksynaptics, when disabling the touchpad (e.g. via Ctrl-Alt-P) and with the option "disable tapping" activated, the touchpad is completely disabled while it should only diable the tapping function. Only the other option "disable touchpad" should completely disable any input from the tp (which is working).

kind regards,
raph

...ok - I was just about to write a counter-comment but then re-checked the docs and now I changed my mind. I didn't understand that the samrt mode was triggered by just typing on the keyboard. Anyways and funnily, in breezy, it worked the way I expected it to (i.e., the alt-ctrl-p worked like the smart mode setting). Maybe this is even useful?
