First, that file is, as noted in the comments contained in the file, for evdev based systems. The default these days for Fedora is "libinput" not "evdev". Try not to confuse the 2. Second, you should avoid making changes to "system" files in places such as /usr/share whatever. These can get overwritten without your knowledge on updates and upgrades and leave you scratching your head. In this case the file you tried changing is provided by the package xorg-x11-drv-evdev and should that package get updated or whatever it could change that file and remove whatever changes you made. -- You're Welcome Zachary Quinto _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
