Bug ID: 93401
Summary: Make disabling touchpad movement possible as an option
Product: Wayland
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: libinput
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Make it possible to disable the movement of the Touchpad while keeping buttons
working. This feature is especially important for people who want to use the
Trackpoint of their Thinkpad X240, T440, W540 etc. These devices lack physical
Trackpoint buttons, thus require an enabled Touchpad. Disabling only the
movement would avoid unwanted cursor movement when clicking or accidentally
touching the Touchpad.
With the synaptics driver a simple synclient touchpadoff=1 used to be enough.
I’ve done a quick&dirty “fix” in libinput for myself by uncommenting line 920
in evdev-mt-touchpad.c:
tp_thumb_detect(tp, t, time);
tp_palm_detect(tp, t, time);
//tp_motion_hysteresis(tp, t);
//tp_motion_history_push(t);
tp_unpin_finger(tp, t);
Unfortunately I lack knowledge to implement this as an exposed option.
