Disabling the touchpad.
Hi: in KDE you can enable/disable the touchpad by means of a certain key combination, by going to System Settings. Could you tell me exactly how?

Seek and ye shall find.
System Settings Input Devices Touchpad Carefully consider all tabs. That is how I do it. Unplug the mouse and the touchpad works. Plug it back in and the touchpad is diabled UGH but uploading attachments is a sore point for me on this forum. http://my.tbaytel.net/nitesky/Screenshot1.png |
depends on the model,
but for a somehow generic way, I have a script, and call this with a custom key combo this will toggle the touchpad on/off Code:
#!/bin/bash |

Yes. I am using Plasma 5. Was essentially the same in KDE 4. You just have to look
EDIT - Oops, my bad. I just put Alien Bob's full version of his live system to a usb stick and booted to see. Different. I remember now using a script as per at least one other post. A sneak peek for you into Plasma 5 shows that this is better addressed and in the future when KDE is upgraded in Slackware ... |

Make sure the System Settings window is open and maximized, so that all icons are showing. Type Alt + F2 type ksnapshot and press Enter. Take fullscreen snapshot, save it to disk and upload the file here. |
Please see post #9.
