I installed an Opensolaris2009.06 in a Compaq laptop. One annoying thing is that both touchpad and external USB mouse work. When I type, it is unavoidable that the touchpad will be touched and move the pointer around. Here is a solution to disable the touchpad.
~$ modinfo | grep mouse
102 fffffffff79ed628 be8 116 1 mouse8042 (PS/2 Mouse)
103 fffffffff80f7000 2320 - 1 vuid3ps2 (mouse events to vuid events)
127 fffffffff813b000 2c68 - 1 usbms (USB mouse streams)
There is no PS/2 mouse installed for sure. So I remove the PS/2 mouse driver.
~$ pfexec modunload -i 102
If you want to reload this driver, here is the command,
~$ pfexec modload /kernel/drv/amd64/mouse8042
But it didn't bring back my touchpad.
