[tde-users] Re: How to turn off laptop touchpad? (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics doesn't)

In general: xinput set-prop id-number "Device Enabled" 0 Specific example (if I wanted to disable my UVC Camera): xinput set-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 0 You need to identify the id-number of the touchpad first. Steps: 1. at the command prompt, use: xinput list Example output: xinput list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Razer Razer Ornata Chroma id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Razer Razer Ornata Chroma id=11 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech K330 id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech M215 2nd Gen id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Razer Razer Ornata Chroma id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ UVC Camera (046d:0825) id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Razer Razer Ornata Chroma id=15 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Logitech K330 id=16 [slave keyboard (3)] From the output, determine the id of your device.
