            Bug ID: 100416
           Summary: Issues with 1.6 version on Dell Precision 5510
           Product: Wayland
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: libinput
          Assignee: wayland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Hello,
I have several issues with libinput since version 1.6, the first one with
acceleration, and the second one with tapping sometimes not taken into account
(I tested the version 1.6 for few days, and then the versions 1.6.1, 1.6.2,
1.6.3 and the version 1.7, and none of them solved my issues, but I have to say
that the last one is improving a bit the situation, the pointer is way less
slow).
Since I did not have much time to debug this, I downgraded to the version 1.5.4
which btw was really perfect, way better than synaptics.
But since few days, two fingers scrolling is really lagging, especially on
Firefox, so I took some time to try to fix these issues. 
As I understand, there is no way to configure in detail libinput in Gnome on
Wayland (e.g. acceleration). Moreover, my scrolling issue is most probably
linked to the gnome wayland composer (Cf.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96312 I have thousands of these
messages in my logs).
So for these reasons, I decided to leave wayland, at least for several
weeks/months, and go back to X11.
But since libinput seems very customizable on X11, I was wondering if there was
a way to use the last version of libinput (1.7) with the same parameters as the
version 1.5.4, instead of using the version 1.5.4? When possible I try to run
the last versions of the software I use.
PS: I'm running Gnome on Arch on a Dell Precision 5510 developer edition (a
linux version of the XPS15).
Rgrds,
Ben
