https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D245966 Bug ID: 245966 Summary: x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics: enable EVDEV unconditionally Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Reporter: wulf@freebsd.org Assignee: x11@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(x11@FreeBSD.org) Created attachment 213847 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D213847&action= =3Dedit x11-drivers.xf86-input-synaptics.patch There are 2 reasons to do that: 1. psm backend is mostly useless nowadays as it does not support even semi-multitouch trackpad packet format. So the only functional backend is evdev. 2. x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics unconditionally installs high priority configuration file which effectively forbids libinput to handle touchpads t= hat makes them unusable in Xorg if xf86-input-synaptics is compiled w/o evdev support. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
