So I tested the patch provided here. 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848270

It definitely allows the Fn+F7 key combo to toggle the use of the 
mousepad. Unfortunately the mousepad comes up disabled and is very much 
confusing the users using the device. Is there somewhere I should look 
for what is causing that? I don't mind helping to debug the issue at all 
I just don't know where to start.

Thanks,
