gnome gui mouse/touchpad settings
looks like the device isn't detected and initialized by the kernel, so it looks like a mouse device, not a touchpad. the evdev log shows that it's advertising relative coordinates. Please attach your dmesg and the exact model number of your laptop. Coincidentally, you filed this against libinput but the log shows you're not actually using libinput. not that it makes a difference until the kernel is fixed, but you'll need to install xorg-x11-drv-libinput to use libinput.

dmesg attached
After a recent software update everything with the touchpad is now working as expected. I am not sure what data to capture here but the following is the kernel I am now running with everything working on this laptop: [root@fedora ~]# uname -a Linux fedora.localdomain 4.3.4-200.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 25 13:37:15 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux That's good news though we don't know why :) Ideally, I'd like to see a dmesg of the working kernel (4.3.4-200) to understand why your touchpad is now in the correct setting. There has been no changes in the elantech (PS/2) driver since v4.2 that would explain this, so I think it should be now handled over I2C. Anyway, marking the bug as closed now that everything is working. |
Created attachment 1115611 [details] output of various commands gathering information Description of problem: No edge scrolling or two finger functionality available with detected device. Basic cursor movement and right/left click is working but no advanced features at all. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: every boot. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Fresh install of Fedora 23 2. Using gnome environment. Actual results: no advanced touchpad features available. GUI mouse settings does not show any advanced two finger options. libinput-debug-events does send output to the screen but not sure how to use that data. Expected results: ability to use edge scrolling or two finger functions on touchpad. Additional info: attaching a screen shot of the GUI mouse/touchpad settings window and output from: uname -a journalctl | grep -i touchpad xinput xinput list-props lsmod
