I don't think it applies if your laptop has *physical* mouse buttons on it somewhere, for e.g. It also may not apply if the laptop does button emulation in firmware or something, such that libinput can't change it. > (And off topic but I do *not* like that very prominent HURT ME BUTTON, > labeled "Touchpad" with an on/off slider.

Well, that's obviously there for the case where you have some other input device and don't want accidental touches on the touchpad getting in the way. E.g. a USB mouse, or you use the touchscreen. It's not really *that* hard to trigger again with tab / enter if you hit it by accident when you *don't* have an external mouse or a touch screen, really...I guess it could stand a bit better 'don't click this without thinking about it' labelling, though... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
