[Bug 1129498] New: Synaptics touchpad issue: significant cursor shift upon finger lift.
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1129498 Bug ID: 1129498 Summary: Synaptics touchpad issue: significant cursor shift upon finger lift. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org Assignee: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: cyril.x9@gmail.com QA Contact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Synaptics touchpad issue: significant cursor shift upon finger lift. Synaptics touchpad libinput driver not responding to quirk-file overrides. OS: openSUSE tumbleweed; Gnome Hardware: Dell inspiron 14z (5423) (Laptop) Reproducing the issue: When using the touchpad, the cursor moves significantly when I lift my finger off of the touchpad. This effect makes selection and clicking (via touchpad) more challenging than it should be. *This issue seems hardware specific, since other touch-pad-SUSE-Tumbleweed equipped laptops of mine do not suffer this issue. **originally mentioned in the forum, I was directed to make a formal bug-report** https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/535254-Synaptics-touchpad-issue-s... I have found that the issue can be corrected by using the xf86-input-synaptics driver, with a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d entry. Gnome/wayland is designed to work with libinput, so I have been trying to use an /etc/libinput/override.quirk entry to adjust the touchpad pressure range. Unfortunately, I have not seen any effect whatsoever, no matter how ridiculous the values are. further, When I `libinput quirks list /dev/input/event1` , my override quirk is not listed. I have primarily been using the wayland guide to test and adjust different pressure range values to correct the undesired behavior. My understanding is that anything beyond runtime testing must be handled by a local-overrides.quirk file, stored at /etc/libinput/. https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/touchpad-pressure-debugg... Should I be adjusting these values a different way? Please advise -Cyril -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
