<pre>I hope that's the right place to report that, I'm using xorg, not wayland under
debian.
libinput: 1.9.4-2
xserver-xorg-input-libinput 0.26.0-1
dmesg tells me about the device:
synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 8.2, id: 0x1e2a1, caps:
0xf00323/0x840300/0x12e800/0x0, board id: 3038, fw id: 2375007
Even when set the acceleration too 1.0, it still moves the pointer way too
slow (for me).
I don't know exactly how you implemented that acceleration thing, but can't you
just make an acceleration of +1 absolutely incredible insanly fast!
so then users can find their own acceleration like 0.732? or just allow
accelerations bigger than 1?
This will relieve you from bugreports like this one in the future ;-).
The palm detection is not working reliable on that device. When I try it out in
indentionaly it works, but when I write texts, maybe once per minute it gets a
click and resets the focus, which is incredibly annoying. It also seems to
register a click a lot of times, when I move my right hand from the touchpad
back to the keyboard.
The touchpad is supposed to register a middle click, when I do a click in the
middle, between the left and right mouse pointer. Sometimes it works, mostly it
doesn't (I'm not sure if that is a software or hardware issue). Most of the
times I hit left or right button when trying to do that, the area to register
that click is waaay to small. When working with low light it's even practically
impossible to hit the right spot.
at least until I get an usuable mouse speed I'll go back to input-synaptics.</pre>
