While looking around for code that might resume the touchpad, I noticed that the libinput master code was a bit different to the version we ship: there's a tp_resume_conditional() function that checks sendevents.
And checking the history shows up this patch: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/libinput/commit/src?id=53d53dd18ef14484d632421027cd7b6130013cf0 Fedora is also shipping this as a patch against their libinput-1.8.2 in Fedora 27: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libinput/blob/f27/f/0001-touchpad- don-t-resume-a-disabled-touchpad.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1715479 Title: Touchpad won't stay disabled after resuming from suspend Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've disabled my touchpad using the mouse and touchpad control panel however it does not last very long i.e. after I've disabled it, it somehow becomes enabled even though the control panel continues to show it as disabled.
