Comment 4 for bug 793190

Lorenzo,

With current version, I have tested with the touchpad enabled and
disabled, before shutting down the computer. In all cases, I have to
plug in any external mouse, then remove it to enable the touchpad.

Additionally, I do not have touchpad issues with any account that does
not have this app loaded.

If you need further information, please contact me.

Regards,
Chuck
