Bug ID: 487281 Summary: Touchpad is not automatically disabled while typing Classification: I don't know Product: kde Version: unspecified Platform: Ubuntu OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: nunogomes.pt+...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When I write on my laptop, as soon as my palms touch the touchpad, the mouse travels anywhere on the screen and I often see large chunks of text being selected and replaced by what I'm writing at the moment. I tried to select and deselect "Disable while typing" in the settings, but the behaviour is the same whatever option I use, whether I use X11 or Wayland. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open any text editor on a laptop running a Linux distro with KDE Plasma. 2. Start typing. 3. OBSERVED RESULT The mouse pointer goes wild and very often large chunks of text are selected and replaced by what we're typing at the moment. EXPECTED RESULT The working environment/OS is able to properly detect the palms on the touchpad and deactivate the latter while we're typing.
