can i suggest you put the idea in the Ubuntu brainstorm as that will help it get the attention of others <div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Sep 2, 2012 at 6:14 PM, Alessandro Yahoo <<a href="mailto:alessandro.suglia@yahoo.com" target="_blank">alessandro.suglia@yahoo.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello to everyone, it's a pleasure for me to post here and try to contribute( just a few ) to this big and wonderful project. My name is Alessandro Suglia and I just want to propose to you a simple tool that this distro doesn't have, and I'm thinking about a specific program which recognize that a mouse adaptor was inserted and after that grant to you to choose which device do you want to use from that moment ahead. For example, in my case, if I'm using my notebook and I connect my mouse device, I can still use the touchpad and I have to disable it from the "Settings Panel". I find it quite uncomfortable so I think that could be a good idea to create a specific daemon which recognize this type of situation and grant to the user the possibility to manage this kind of problem, giving to him the possibility to switch directly from the panel, the device that he wants to continue to use. I hope that this will be a good start point for you and also, I hope that this idea won't be useless.
