[Bug 512192] Re: Can't configure Elan tech touchpad on Dell Inspiron 11z, Asus K7I0C and maybe also Dell Mini 10 (not V), Asus k40in, Asus U81A, Asus UL80-VT, and Asus N61Jq.

I would really appreciate some up-to-date info on this.  I have played
around with just about every on-line tutorial there is.  I'm now worried
that because I've played around so much, that I've damaged the
netbookieness of my Ubuntu Netbook Remix.   There are so many mouse
oriented programs on my computer now that I don't know what to do.

Why is it this difficult to get features which claim to disable the
touchpad while typing to work when they have been included in the
release of Ubuntu?    I mean, there should be some sort of way to trick
a mouse to work with the touchpad device, or decrease sensitivity right?

Core features like this need to work.  I assure you that productive work
on my new netbook is nearly impossible without disabling the touchpad
while typing.  Every time I try to touch the keyboard's space bar it
sends  a mouse click event to the screen which may or may not highlight
and delete all information which I just typed.

Currently, I am typing this from my netbook.  I have had to retype 5
lines out of this because the touchpad driver is not working properly.

Any fixes would be greatly appreciated. I have a HP N214 netbook. Please
let me know what I can do to help with this ongoing issue.
