You can put
export MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1
into your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc (edit: or just ~/.profile under ubuntu).
You'll have to logout/login to "apply" that.
Alternatively you can edit the .desktop file of Firefox, but that might not catch all the ways in which firefox may be launched.
- JonathanBeuys 5y agoHmm.. I tried to execute "export MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1" in the terminal and then start FF from the GUI and it did not have an impact. So I guess it would also not work in .bashrc. But not sure.
- chmod775 5y agoNo that's not how that works. Environment variables are inherited from parent processes. If you just put that in a sibling process (like a terminal), it won't run firefox with that variable if you run it from the GUI. Your .bash_profile allows you to set up the environment for your entire session.
- jraph 5y agoI would not expect my desktop environment to run my .bash_profile. Especially when I don't even use bash as my default shell. I'm afraid each desktop environment probably has its specific way of adding environment variables.
