Comment 0 for bug 1464561

Running Xubuntu on an Asus UX303LN laptop.

The touchpad disable/enable hotkey (F9) does nothing. This makes it very hard to use the machine since the touchpad is constantly capturing random "mouse movements", making it impossible to enter text in the right place.

When I use the machine I have an external bluetooth mouse, and disable the touhpad in the settings menu, so I can type, but it would be much better to have the option to use the touchpad, and switch it on/off.

Also, if the bluetooth connection is lost, then I can do nothing and have to reboot!

I have no idea how to debug this but would be happy to help.

Another hotkey that does not work is F2 "airplane mode". This one is of no importance to me, but I mention it for completeness.

I am really hoping for a fix!

I am a Ubuntu beta-tester from long ago, and helped on the 1st 64bit version!

Let me know, please!,
Cheers,
Bob

I have attached all the files specified on the hotkey bug reporting page. I put them in an archive since that seems to be the only option for attaching multiple files?

udevadm info --export-db > udev-db.txt
dmesg > dmesg.log
sudo lsinput > lsinput.log
xkbcomp -xkb :0 - > xkbcomp.txt
setxkbmap -print > xkbmap.txt
