yes, that's expected. the kernel's handling is independent of libinput,
libinput may choose not to handle certain devices. fwiw, what evemu sees is the
same that libinput sees.
<span class="quote">> Also, `udevadm info` shows stuff:</span >
ID_INPUT_SWITCH is missing, that's the one thing we care about for the switch
code. For other touchpads we use ID_INPUT_TOUCHPAD, etc.
<span class="quote">> So... what's going on here?</span >
honestly, no idea at this point. Leave libinput-debug-events running and see
what happens when the touchpad disables itself. Or check the Xorg.log when this
happens to see if there's anything of use.
if you leave libinput-debug-events running, I recommend applying this patch
first:
