I have no idea what sub group/package this belongs in. I know it
affects Gnome and KDE on Xorg. I don't know if GDM (or whatever now
handles the login process) does differently from the full gnome that
allows the trackpad to at least partially work (movement, but not button
clicks)

I have a Dell Venue Pro 7140 with the keyboard/trackpad/extra battery
dock. PopOS 20.04 fully updated. I have experienced this bug on stock

There is still an issue with Wayland and the trackpad, but it's
different than Xorg so the problem may be in how Xorg is processing the
trackpad (I honestly don't know) - in Wayland, it will work until I
attempt to run the sofware center.
