LM21: Disable touchpad when a mouse is attached?

Post by The Bright Side »

Hey guys,

With that option having been removed in Linux Mint 21, how would I go about disabling my laptop's touchpad when a mouse is attached?

Also, does anybody know why it was removed or how to bring it back? Here's a screenshot from previous Mint versions:

And here's a screenshot from my Linux Mint 21 install taken today:

Found it! They moved it to the "Touchpad is..." dropdown!
