<IknoweD> palm detection sending the cursor flying and generating click events, is infuriating. has anyone tried replacing libinput with mtrack? this dude warns of potential damage in his how-to: https://howchoo.com/linux/the-perfect-almost-touchpad-settings-on-linux-2/

<kit_ty_kate3> mps: what's mtrack?
<mps> kit_ty_kate3: I think I have m1pro 16" but I use mtrack driver

<mps> I switched to mtrack from libinput

<mps> Glanzmann: I've built mtrack from latest git commit for alpine
<Glanzmann> But maybe mtrack in Debian is to old.
<mps> Glanzmann: btw, for about two weeks I'm using xf86-input-mtrack instead of xf86-input-libinput, found it more 'tweakable'

<mps_> ktz_[m]: yes, I'm working to add xf86-input-mtrack to alpine, found it is somewhat better than xf86-input-libinput

<mps> good morning. anyone using xf86-input-mtrack with xorg? would be to see swipe configs for it

<luca_> can someone share their mtrack conf file? I am not really satified with what i found online
<luca_> thing is, i compiled mtrack from source without errors, binaries show up exactly where the config tool expected them and i also created a config file starting with 50 (highest number) in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d but when I try to check using xinput --list-props <device_id> it lists a bunch of option from libinput, suggesting that in fact there is no mtrack underneath
<luca_> hey, I was trying to install mtrack driver and replace libinput driver for the touchpad but it seems that i have got no luck, can someone help me?
<maxung[m]> * one xf86-input-mtrack LukeTheWalker
<maxung[m]> I'm using this one xf86-input-mtrack

<Glanzmann> jannau: IIRC the trackpad works with libinput, mtrack and synaptics xorg driver, which of them do think is the best?

<Glanzmann> mps: Do you have any config that speeds up pointer speed? With 'mtrack' it was really sensitive. With libinput it is very slow. Something in the middle would be nice.
<mps> hmm, I don't have mtrack installed. is it better than libinput
<Glanzmann> mps: Btw. about the tocuhpad, which is finally working. I forgot to install the mtrack module.

<amw> I also have the xserver-xorg-input-mtrack installed - not sure if it is needed
