Steps to Reproduce

Expected Behavior

?

meaning what? what type/model touchpad is identified via dmesg?

what does this mean exactly?

3

By almost everything I mean configuration, and drivers. Yes it does get shown in dmesg and works

4

this tells me nothing useful

if it works, what’s the problem?
why won’t you tell us what type it is? provide your dmesg log?

I don’t know how you expect us to help when you won’t provide any info

5

Ok I will soon

6

That is my half of DMESG log and my touchpad is a precision touchpad if thats what you mean. I said it wrong by when it works. Sorry about the low amount of information earlier I didn’t have my laptop near me.

plenty of posts detailing issues with the PixArt touchpad, such as:

the TLDR is that mainline linux doesn’t have the correct calibration settings for the touchpad, so you have to add them via a quirk
