I was discussing this with Matthew Garrett in #fedora-kernel. He's telling me that if the hardware does the enabling/disabling that it should not emit _TOGGLE, but that it should emit KEY_TOUCHPAD_ON or KEY_TOUCHPAD_OFF instead. I'm in no place to know one way or the other. I've CC'd him on this so the discussion of the issue can continue to figure out what the source problem is. Thanks again for the help, I'll get the acipdump and dmesg logs sometime today. -- Nathanael d. Noblet t 403.875.4613
