Hi I've read different threads and wikis (including the ArchLinux on dell xps 13 wiki) saying that the issue with the Dell XPS 13 L322x touchpad has been fixed upsteram in kernel and patched kernel are not needed anymore.
However, since upgrading to gnome 3.20 and linux 4.5, it seems that the touchpad is again recognized as a mouse instead of a touchpad.
For example, in gnome settings, under mouse and trackpad, only mouse options are shown (before I also had trackpad options).
Also syndaemon command to disable touchpad while typing is not working anymore. Neither "touchpad-state-git" form AUR seems to work.
$ xinput -list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Ultrathin Touch Mouse id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ CyPS/2 Cypress Trackpad id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
Basically I have two issues to solve (that were ok before):
1) Disable touchpad while typing
2) Disable touchpad when a bluetooth mouse is connected.
First issue is very important as I'm having a lot of troubles... issue 2 would be fine, but it is not mandatory for me.
Can someone help me please?

You should switch on libinput management. Remove any synaptics related packages and install the necessary ones:
$ pacman -Q | grep xf86-input
xf86-input-evdev 2.10.1-3
xf86-input-libinput 0.18.0-1
$ pacman -Q | grep libinput
libinput 1.2.3-1
xf86-input-libinput 0.18.0-1Remove any synaptics related configuration before the reboot.
