I'm using a ThinkPad X121e running Arch Linux. Using sysfs to change the sensitivity worked. Locate the files we can change (command from <<a href="https://gist.github.com/noromanba/11261595">https://gist.github.com/noromanba/11261595</a>>): $ find /sys/devices/platform/i8042 -name name | xargs grep -Fl TrackPoint | sed 's/\/input\/input[0-9]*\/name$//' /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5 I checked whether the upgrade changed any values at this point, which it didn't: # for f in /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5/*; do [[ -f $f ]] && echo "$f" && cat "$f"; done > new-values.txt # pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libinput-1.8.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz # downgrade libinput # systemctl reboot # for f in /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5/*; do [[ -f $f ]] && echo "$f" && cat "$f"; done > old-values.txt $ diff -s new-values.txt old-values.txt Files old-values.txt and new-values.txt are identical In the end I changed /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5/sensitivity to a lower value: $ cat /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5/{speed,sensitivity} 97 128 $ echo 100 | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/serio5/sensitivity</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
