^C
Above is the result I got after two (Fn + F9) strokes on my ASUS P81IJ laptop.
The hotkey does not toggle the touchpad as intended.

---------------
systemd (208-8ubuntu8) utopic; urgency=medium

  * debian/tests/boot-and-services: Be more liberal about the expected
    NetworkManager rsyslog lines; curiously on i386 we don't get NM's
    "starting" message, but plenty of others. Fixes failing i386 autopkgtest.
  * Pull latest keymaps from upstream. Fixes touchpad toggle on Asus laptops.
