That would be iio-sensor-proxy opening it (once) and letting go of it until it receives a kevent saying it's changed coarse orientation (which we'll never receive because the driver doesn't send it). I think that libinput should just ignore it. Is there a udev tag for that?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
