Hey so I cannot find out how to edit a setting on a listed device on libinput.
By running a simple libinput list-devices It would list a bunch of devices, but the one I want to change is Disable-w-typing on AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint
Device: AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint
Kernel: /dev/input/event19
Group: 11
Seat: seat0, default
Size: 104x60mm
Capabilities: pointer gesture
Tap-to-click: disabled
Tap-and-drag: enabled
Tap drag lock: disabled
Left-handed: disabled
Nat.scrolling: disabled
Middle emulation: disabled
Calibration: n/a
Scroll methods: *two-finger edge
Click methods: *button-areas clickfinger
Disable-w-typing: enabled
Disable-w-trackpointing: enabled
Accel profiles: flat *adaptive custom
Rotation: n/a
The documentation for libinput suggest that
Disable-while-typing can be enabled and disabled by calling
libinput_device_config_dwt_set_enabled().
I do not understand how to call that, or how I would do that. I have tried using xinput to set the property for the device but I ran into an issue with wayland that messes up xinput (I still don’t really understand that). I am at a loss for how to even start.
Still learning how to use markdown and let me know if you need any computer details.
