I am using the HP Envy x360 15'. Everything works fine but it has an unusually large touchpad (for better Windows 8 usability). Every time I am typing I accidentally am hitting the touchpad and the mouse pointer jumps somewhere else creating chaos during typing.
The solution is to install Touchpad-indicator (as described here) and set the Disable touchpad on typing -option. As far as I understand this uses Sysdaemon which is installed with any Ubuntu installation.
The problem is however that the seconds to wait after the last key press before enabling the touchpad -setting can only be set to 1 or 2 seconds. So far so good, but after using the 1 second setting for days now I have the feeling that my finger falls off as this setting is way too long to be practically usable when working with text.
You can fine-tune Sysdaemon as described here. For me, the command syndaemon -i 0.3 -d -K works best, but it does not autostart when I create an entry in Startup Applications. Is there any way to finetune sysdaemon in 15.04 and make it autostart?
