<pre>Zach,
Please log a new bug for that:

Philipp,
I'm afraid to tell you that after fixing <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed"
title="RESOLVED FIXED - Somehow conditionalize hysteresis (hardware black/whitelist, device property introspection, user-exposed setting, etc)"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=98839">bug 98839</a>, the remaining problems with
the X1 Carbon gen 4/5 are mostly hardware problems. It's just laggy
hardware/firmware. I have verified this myself on both models, and that gen 3
has no such problem, and that many other laptops have no such problem. Only the
gen 4
and gen 5 X1 Carbon's have laggy touchpad hardware. I know it's very
disappointing.
Slightly encouraging is that in mouse emulation mode (single point support),
the lag is gone. I don't know how to achieve this in Linux but it's visible
during Windows 10 setup. The lag returns after the OS installs multi-touch
support. So the lag sounds like it's rooted in the touchpad firmware for
multi-touch support.
There is only one remaining software fix I can think of that might/should
help you. That is to switch to the 'flat' acceleration profile:
<a href="https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/pointer-acceleration.html">https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/pointer-acceleration.html</a>
However I don't know of any way for regular users to do that.
Failing a profile change, this bug is a pure duplicate of <a class="bz_bug_link

href="show_bug.cgi?id=98839">bug 98839</a>, plus
hardware/firmware faults.</pre>
