On my Dell laptop, the touchpad is just reported as a PS/2 mouse, and
is handled by moused. moused allows you to toggle whether a particular
moused is enabled by sending it a SIGUSR1, and so I have this script
attached to an icon on my taskbar:
#!/bin/sh
moused_pid=`ps ax | awk '(/[m]oused.*psm0/) { print $1 }'`
/usr/local/bin/sudo /bin/kill -USR1 ${moused_pid}
Obviously you have to setup sudo to allow your user to do that.
Cheers
