I have the same problem, but with TrackPoints. It's impossible for me to use any trackpad after trying that, and that has had me tied to ThinkPads for the last 18 years.
- amatecha 3y agoYeah, it does drive me crazy using laptops without a TrackPoint. It is REALLY convenient and quick to use. Daily-driving an X230 and it's just so low-friction to work with.
- saltcured 3y agoMe too, but I feel like I'm being slowly boiled with the trackpoint behavior on Fedora. I keeps changing over time and also being inconsistent between different devices in my possession. It is jarring to move between keyboards and have to completely recalibrate my hands to the different behavior. Try as I might, I can't seem to make them converge with the mouse/trackpoint settings controls in the GUI. The input method also does not seem to "scale" well with large or high-dpi screens, so even just changing resolutions for a work session can also disrupt the behavior on one single device.
