Description:
The hardware click on my touchpad (Dell XPS 13 9333 developer edition) no longer works on this kernel (4.11.3-1). Tap to click still works but physically clicking the touchpad no longer works. If I downgrade to the linux-lts kernel (4.9.30-1-lts) the touchpad click starts working again. I tried switching from libinput to the older synaptics X org driver and the problem is the same. The libinput-debug-events (or xev) program shows that physically clicking the touchpad does not register at all. I am using gdm and GNOME shell for my desktop. The problem is the same under GNOME Wayland or GNOME Xorg. Between the kernels something I noticed is that touchpad names appear different In 4.9.30-1-lts the device name is "DLL060A:00 06CB:2734" In 4.11.3-1 the device name is "Synaptics s3203" Here is what libinput-list-devices shows. In kernel 4.9.30-1-lts ``` Device: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734 Kernel: /dev/input/event14 Group: 8 Seat: seat0, default Size: 99x60mm Capabilities: pointer Tap-to-click: disabled Tap-and-drag: enabled Tap drag lock: disabled Left-handed: disabled Nat.scrolling: disabled Middle emulation: disabled Calibration: n/a Scroll methods: *two-finger edge Click methods: *button-areas clickfinger Disable-w-typing: enabled Accel profiles: none Rotation: n/a ``` In kernel 4.11.3-1 ``` Device: Synaptics s3203 Kernel: /dev/input/event14 Group: 8 Seat: seat0, default Size: 97x59mm Capabilities: pointer Tap-to-click: enabled Tap-and-drag: enabled Tap drag lock: disabled Left-handed: disabled Nat.scrolling: disabled Middle emulation: n/a Calibration: n/a Scroll methods: *two-finger edge Click methods: none Disable-w-typing: enabled Accel profiles: none Rotation: n/a ``` Note that under "Click methods" nothing is listed under 4.11.3-1 which is wrong. Additional info: * linux 4.11.3-1 * xf86-input-libinput 0.25.1-1 * libinput 1.7.2-1 * gnome-shell 3.24.2-1 |
