Hello every1!
We got a new Acer Aspire 5738G Notebook, 15,6". First step: Remove MS Vista, install Ubuntu 9.04 amd64, of course
Everything is working fine! Webcam works, external BT is mapped to the Bluetooth key, wireless button and adapter works, correct resolution using nVidias driver. All buttons work, monitor switching works. GREAT! I will soon post it to the laptop testing team (see wiki).
Edit Here's the wiki page I just created: Acer Aspire 5738
Well there is just one issue. The "touchpad off" - button is not available on FN+F7, as on models before. Instead it has become a new hardware button, next to the touchpad. See this picture I've taken:
Well the bad thing is, I can switch it off - but not on again!
I watched dmesg and /var/log/messages, but pressing this button is not being logged at all.
Output from cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i synaptic:

I didn't file a bug yet. If anyone has an idea, how to proceed, please do so. I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
