Good, that means it could be a simple problem of key detection and/or 
association.

If you are using KDE or GNOME -for other desktops I don't know- you can 
create a custom key combo binded to a command which is usually done from 
the keyboard configuration module at the control center but remember you 
need a "toggle" button (on/off) and key bindings are usually assigned 
individually so you'll need 2 (one for enabling the touchpad and another 
for disabling it). Anyway, that would be a work-around not a proper/clean 
solution.
