Description Stefan Hajnoczi 2017-07-26 09:00:22 UTC
Description of problem:

The touchpad on my ThinkPad X1 Carbon 3rd Gen re-enables itself after opening the laptop lid.

The touchpad is disabled in the BIOS and GNOME.  After opening the lid the touchpad responds but GNOME's mouse settings dialog still thinks it is disabled.

I noticed that libinput-debug-events shows POINTER_MOTION events while the touchpad is successfully disabled in GNOME and the on-screen mouse cursor isn't moving.  Perhaps libinput or a higher layer of the stack "forgets" to ignore the touchpad after the lid has been opened?

This is a F26 regression, previous Fedora releases worked fine.  I am using Wayland.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libinput-1.7.3-1.fc26.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-libinput-0.25.1-2.fc26.x86_64
libwayland-client-1.13.0-1.fc26.x86_64
xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-1.19.3-4.fc26.x86_64
gnome-session-wayland-session-3.24.1-2.fc26.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable touchpad in BIOS and GNOME mouse settings.
2. Verify that the touchpad does not respond.
3. Close laptop lid and reopen.
4. Test if the touchpad responds.

Actual results:
Touchpad responds.

Expected results:
Touchpad does not respond.

Note this is a possible duplicate of bz 1448962 but I wasn't able to decide whether they are the same issue or not.
