Package: release-notes Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: debia...@lists.debian.org
Dear release team, there was a question on debian-user right now about input configuration options not working anymore on Stretch that have previously been working (for a _long_ time): https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2017/04/msg00400.html The reason is that Xorg now uses a libinput-based driver by default and not the evdev one (though that was is still available IIRC), and the configuration options are named differently in the libinput-based driver. This should be mentioned in the release notes, perhaps also with a snippet for how to go back to the evdev-based driver. In case it might be useful to link the manpage of the libinput driver: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/xserver-xorg-input-libinput/libinput.4.en.html Regards, Christian
