The attachments look like pretty normal touches and they *should* be filtered by the disable-while-typing code but it's unclear why not. Maybe run libinput-debug-events --verbose on the side and look for events of "event4 - palm: keyboard timeout". If they happen just before your touch and you're typing slow enough, then this can cause the effects you're seeing. I notice the pressure range is quite high, so this bug may be a candidate for <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_ASSIGNED " title="ASSIGNED - Palm detection: ignore moves over a pressure threshold" href="show_bug.cgi?id=94236">bug 94236</a>. Read through <a href="https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/touchpad_pressure.html">https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/touchpad_pressure.html</a> and try to gauge the pressure ranges for your finger during normal use and then again while you're typing. see if there's a reliable threshold where we can identify a palm.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
