Touchpad control on a PowerBook

[Erik Chakravarty <e.chakravarty@sms.ed.ac.uk>]

Can anybody think of a way to disable the touchpad temporarily (without
restarting X)?

The touchpad is very sensitive under Linux it seems and keeps jumping
around documents whilst I'm typing if I accidentally brush close to it.

Ideally I'd like to map a script to switch the pad off to the Eject key,
then when I hit it again the touchpad is reenabled. Is this possible
with pbbuttonsd?


Thanks
