permanently setting ` gpointing-device-settings`

[john maclean]

Is there a way to permanently store settings for
`gpointing-device-settings`? I have a rather nasty touchpad which I
would like to see die!

Hi John,

I have no idea on how to do that, but sounds like a bug, ¿have you tried
filling one?

Get a mouse, disable the touchpad and problem solved :)

xinput --set-prop "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad" "Synaptics Off" 1

Apparently there's stuff in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/ to play with so
that this becomes permanent. No time so will make it an alias, run it
20 times, get bored of running the alias and actually work out how to
make this change /stick/ ;-)
