When I'm using dock with external input devices (keyboard + mouse) and=20 LID is closed, I'm getting spurious touchpad events and random mouse=20 clicks and movements. It is because top part of LID is above touchpad and probably generates=20 touch pushes. Year (or two?) when I had conversation with ALPS people I was told that=20 Windows driver is automatically turning touchpad off when ACPI LID close=20 event is received (and similarly turn touchpad on). Maybe Linux should do similar thing? Random movement or touchpad clicks=20 is really annoying. But I'm not sure if kernel or userspace should do=20 this job... What do you think? =2D-=20 Pali Roh=C3=A1r pali.rohar@gmail.com --nextPart17233254.vItbM867X3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAllRPF0ACgkQi/DJPQPkQ1L9dwCguIy6ZrM5DsEpR4rZbpDxVsh3 bIwAnjICz1Tsty6GEch2pCFmGA9C1SWw =EmvP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart17233254.vItbM867X3--
