You can still have both installed though. libevdev and libinput are dependencies, the latter requires the former and evemu is a completely separate tool, see <a href="https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/reporting_bugs.html#evemu">https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/reporting_bugs.html#evemu</a> I don't know enough about gentoo to help you with that though, evemu is stable enough that it shouldn't be an issue... Judging by the list of event nodes (easier to attach /proc/bus/input/devices to see the name) you don't have a touchpad event node. This indicates that the kernel doesn't initialize the touchpad, so libinput can't do anything with it. Does the rescue cd have the same kernel?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
