There was some code to do that in pmud afaik, but I think it was
broken in subtle ways and got disabled. Just run the trackpad tool
again from your /etc/pwrctl script.

For 2.5, I'm thinking about doing a /proc/bus/adb, with all the
available config infos (Fn key behaviour, trackpad setting, maybe
other things on non-Apple devices like HW button mapping on some
third party mice when we know how to do it).

At this point, I expect those infos to be backed up accross ADB
resets.

Ben.
