[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1733032] Re: touchpad disable while typing, disable tap-to-click don't work in 17.10
You make excellent points. 1) Going forward I believe the Gnome guys see anything that's not libinput as unsupported. So we could log an enhancement request to get them to add Xorg synaptics support (ie. tweak the same things as 'synclient' does). But they're likely to ignore that request. Still, I think if someone could implement it based on the synclient code, they might accept a patch. 2) This is certainly a problem and what we should be fixing (although I haven't tested upgrades myself to verify). Let's make this bug about the upgrade problem. Thanks for persisting and figuring it out. ** Summary changed: - touchpad disable while typing, disable tap-to-click don't work in 17.10 + Touchpad settings don't work after upgrading to 17.10 (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is still installed) ** Summary changed: - Touchpad settings don't work after upgrading to 17.10 (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is still installed) + Touchpad settings don't work after upgrading to 17.10 (because xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is still installed) ** Changed in: libinput (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Also affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** No longer affects: libinput ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: libinput (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium ** Changed in: libinput (Ubuntu) Importance: High => Medium -- 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/1733032 Title: Touchpad settings don't work after upgrading to 17.10 (because xserver-xorg-input-synaptics is still installed) Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Status in libinput package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since upgrading to 17.10, my mouse pointer is repeatedly and frequently getting moved against my will when I am typing on my laptop keyboard (as opposed to external keyboard) because my hand brushes against the touchpad or even just near its surface.

Jonathan, I suggest a workaround might be to: 1. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 2. Only log in to "Ubuntu on Xorg", so now you're avoiding libinput completely. 3. Tweak your settings with 'synclient'. Since this sounds like a problem specifically with libinput, please help us to progress this issue by reporting it upstream to the libinput developers here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=wayland&component=libinput And when done, let us know the ID of the newly-created bug. ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => libinput (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733032 Title: touchpad disable while typing, disable tap-to-click don't work in 17.10 Status in libinput package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since upgrading to 17.10, my mouse pointer is repeatedly and frequently getting moved against my will when I am typing on my laptop keyboard (as opposed to external keyboard) because my hand brushes against the touchpad or even just near its surface.

Jonathan, Can you find the options for configuring your touchpad in: Settings > Devices > Mouse & Touchpad?

I run a logitech wireless mouse, although my receiver comes up as "Logitech M315/M235". I'm not sure why this device would show on your system as devices 14 and 18. I assume device 15 must be a wireless keyboard? Just for kicks, you could try selectively disabling one or the other of the devices: xinput disable 14 check mouse, touchpad actions xinput enable 14 retry for device 18.

In my case, xinput shows a device "ELAN Touchscreen" I have issued the command " xinput disable 'ELAN Touchscreen' ", which disables that device entirely, and my touchpad then works correctly. I will update my comment in the bug report.
