[Problem]
The touchpad surface includes a hot area to enable/disable it, but it does not work in linux. Perhaps support needs added for it?
[Original Description]
My laptop doesn't have an extra button for disabling/enabling the touchpad.
On the top left corner of the touchpad there is an small area (marked with a white dot) where you have to tap 2 times to disable/enable it. If disabled it shows a orange light.
This doesn't work under ubuntu, also not under oneiric with all updates installed.
