For what it worth, I've been using the xf86-input-libinput on Leap
for several weeks now and it is working great (setup is a
42.1 trackball, a
integrated touchpad on Dell laptop and an external touchpad from Logitech, which can do multi-touch..).
I bet it does for you and will do for Stefan, Michal and me as well. All of us have a pretty standard setup. We are not using a touchscreen or any wacom device ;p
I'm using a wacom device too ;) And libinput doesn't try to handle Wacom devices ATM, so it shouldn't be a problem. For touchscreen, we'll rely on people to test with hardware, as always..
I would do a phased jump: - do a formal announcement (and even a blog post) on factory mailing list to ask people using TW to switch their setup to xf86-input -libinput and report behaviour changes and other bugs.
Please make it a special program: tell people what to do to participate in this test endeavor and how to get back if it doesn't work at all.
Yes, of course.. But it is something pretty easy to document: zypper in xf86-input-libinput restart your system if mouse isn't acting properly mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*-libinput.conf /etc/X11/ restart try again report bugs :)
- ask similar tests on Leap (maybe with some version bump of xf86 -input -libinput and libinput package)
Please don't do this on Leap! People there may have a different expectation set. Let's not blur the distinction between Leap and Tumbleweed!
We are already shipping libinput on Leap. We can ask people who are willing to help to report issues there. This is to get a higher test coverage.
- once dust settles, switch TW to xf86-input-libinput and wait for the next wave of bug reports and potentially retract the switch, fix stuff and switch back.
I'd rather switch the default once: give people the option to switch before already or switch back after: personal choice - depending on needs.
My suggestion was more if a big issue is discovered ;) -- Frederic Crozat Enterprise Desktop Release Manager SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner@opensuse.org
