Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu "My verdict: Even in the relatively slick Ubuntu variation, Linux is still too rough around the edges for the vast majority of computer users", says Mossberg. Among others, he complains about one of the things I did too when I was writing my stream of Ubuntu reviews back in Spring.

I wish there was a GUI option to turn off touchpad clicking. On my Sony it's extremely easy to accidentally tap the touchpad while typing. 99% of the time I don't even feel it. It's highly annoying.

Won't the Xorg 7.3 addresse this concern? It should improve a LOT the hotplugness (if the word exists...) of the system. Including input devices. Maybe you can easily turn on/off the touchpad? Should be possible very easily soon otherwise.
