Hi, I would like to switch my Synaptic touchpad on and off but last thing isn't working - synclient

Code:
$ synclient TouchpadOff=1
Property for 'TouchpadOff' not available. Skipping.

Code:
$ synclient -l
Parameter settings:

xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Mouse0"
   Driver      "synaptics"
   Option      "Protocol" "auto-dev"
   Option      "SHMConfig" "on"
   Option      "TapButton1" "1"
   Option   "FingerLow" "25"
   Option   "FingerHigh" "30"
   Option   "MaxTapTime" "180"
   Option   "MaxTapMove" "220"
EndSection

Thanks in advance.

didn't help :(

I recall that I could somehow change settings of synaptic touchpad while xorg-server was running.
Since then I upgraded xorg-server, so I tried yesterday to rebuild all xorg-drivers but it didn't help.

Do you know which package has the touchpad functionality? I have gnome-light installed and the menu option only shows "mouse".
