1) How to disable touchpad when USB mouse is connected?
2) Touchpad is NOT disabled while typing (ether with gedit or although this option is checkmarked in
---> System Settings ---> Mouse and Touchpad --->Tab 'Touchpad' under General ->'Disable touchpad while typing'. Typing with gedit or LibreOffoce shows the same behavior.

System Information is attached.(I'm not sure if /var/log/dmesg is of any help but I attached it anyway).
