- scaladev 6y agoThe whole usermode side of input handling depends on a project (libinput) that's been developed by a single guy over the last decade. He asked for help numerous times, reminding everyone that libinput has a bus factor of one, and received none. So either go ahead and help, or stop complaining. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HllUoT_WE7Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HllUoT_WE7Y
- mixmastamyk 6y agoBeen using both without issue for five years, trackpad for longer.
- yjftsjthsd-h 6y agoI'm pretty sure HiDPI is solved from the kernel's perspective; pixels get to the display, it's just that the (userspace) toolkits have lingering issues deciding what pixels to draw.
- swebs 6y agoI've never had any issues with trackpads.
- Lio 6y agoHiDPI seems to work without issue for me now when using Wayland and Gnome. Trackpad support on my XPS13 is acceptable now but not macOS standard IMHO. Crucially though I notice it improving over time. Both of these are userland rather than kernel concerns though aren’t they?
