Disable - Enable Touchpad
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
A very very simple servicemenu to disable or enable your touchpad (e.g. if sometimes you use a USB mouse, the touchpad may become annoying).
Notice: it only works if it is a *synaptic* touchpad
There are plenty of ways to disable your touchpad, for example
through the comamnds synclient TouchpadOff=1 or synclient TouchpadOff=0
which is exactly what this servicemenu does.
At reboot, this setting is reset and touchpad is enabled by default
If you want to disable it permanently, you can comment the touchpad section
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
USAGE:
1) copy the file Disable_Enable_Touchpad.desktop in the KDE servicemenus folder,
that is located in /home/your_username/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus
OR
2) just leave the file Disable_Enable_Touchpad.desktop in same folder
and right click it; on "action" you'll find the touchpad entry
