Fn+F2 is easier. However, if you save Marcus's script to your pinebook and make it executable, you can use xbindkeys (xbindkeys-gui for a GUI configurator) to trigger it from any hotkey combo you like. You'd just need to refine the script a bit more to add a toggle parameter, so you could have it simply toggle the state when called...

So Fn+F8 doesn't do it for you on the T61? Or does it not work because you're not running the support software for the touchpad which requires Windoze?
