xinput --list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
The touchpad has 2 Buttons, right and left mouse buttons. This buttons aren't disabled, when I disable the touchpad in the gnome-control- center. If I install the gnome-shell-extension "Touchpad indicator" and set the "switching methode" to Xinput, the buttons will be disabled. But if I use the "switching methode" Synclient or "Gconf Settings" the buttons still works after disabling the touchpad. With "Touchpad indicator" with the setting "Auto Switch" enabled and "switching methode" Xinput all works as expected. If I unplug the mouse, the touchpad will be activated and vice versa. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783710 Title: touchpad keys still work after disabling the touchpad Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: the touchpad couldn't be disabled completely, the touchpad key's still work ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: gnome-control-center 1:3.28.2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-29.31-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Jul 26 09:31:16 2018 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-control-center SourcePackage: gnome-control-center UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1783710/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
