Does it work with x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics installed? (In reply to comment #1) > Does it work with x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics installed? I have no idea. Evdev has always been adequate. I can try it later and let you knoe, but why is that relevant? You could check whether xf86-input-evdev-9999 from the x11 overlay works or not. If not, it would be a good idea to report this at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ too. If you can, use git bisect to find the commit that broke your touchpad (or the commit that fixed it again). I installed the synaptics driver, and X uses this now instead, so my situation is "fixed", however it doesn't address why evdev stopped working between 2.6.0 and 2.7.0. |
