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,
