I'm not sure I understand your problem but I did have some touchpad issues
before and was able to get desired results from xinput. My problem was I
couldn't turn the touchpad off because kwin wasn't picking up synaptic.
xinput allows you to turn off or on just about anything detected by X.

Oh! Is that what this graphic on the F7 is for - to turn it on and off. I
didn't understand when you said "switch"; at the time I was looking for a
physical switch as opposed to a key on the keyboard. Looking at the
direction-guide doesn't quite work so well when i'm sort of panicked, but
now that I'm more relaxed I see that it describes this disable switch.
Thanks!
