Just wanted to thank for this feature. I installed xorg-x11-drv-libinput two days ago and middle button track point scrolling works like a charm. My life is much better now ;) Vít Dne 11.12.2014 v 14:42 Jaroslav Reznik napsal(a): > = Proposed System Wide Change: Change xorg input stack to use libinput = > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LibinputForXorg > > Change owner(s): Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> > > Replace the current (low-level) input xorg drivers with libinput using the > xorg-x11-drv-libinput wrapper. > > == Detailed Description == > Currently xorg uses different input drivers depending on the device type.
