It is often encountered under Ubuntu that the trackpad cannot be closed with keyboard shortcuts, which occurs after the blogger's computer installs Ubuntu18.04.

Solution:

First check the id of the input device. Enter: xinput on the command line. As shown in the figure, the id=17 of the blogger's TouchPad varies from id to computer.

Once you know the id=17, you can turn off / open the trackpad with the command

Close command: xinput-- disable 17

Open command: xinput-- enable 17

It's too troublesome to type like this each time. To simplify, write two shell files, one to turn off TouchPad, named off17, and one to open TouchPad, named on17.

Then put these two files into the modify permission, and then move to the / usr/bin/ directory

Command line input: chmod aquix off17

Sudo mv off17 / usr/bin/

So you can type off17 on the command line to close the trackpad.

same,

Command line input: chmod aquix on17

Sudo mv on17 / usr/bin/

You can open the trackpad by typing on17.
