2018-12-01 Thread Riccardo Mottola
Hi, after updating system to current yesterday (kernel + userland) I noticed that the TouchPad in X11 is essentially unusable. It overreacts and clicks at random. What I think is that it attempts "scrolling" because just by moving the pointer I notice the xterm scroll or windows roll-up. If

Hi guys! I just updated and rebuilt the kernel to current. It is much better now. Essentially, without using two fingers, it works fine without the need of any tweaks. Scrolling however is almost unusable, very jerky, speeds up and moves around, but really "happens" only when I put two finge
