Touchpad does not work on Legion 5

[John1776]

Hi, I just installed Manjaro GNOME on my Legion 5. For one boot I think the touchpad worked fine, and now no matter how many times I reboot its not working. Suspending the laptop also didnt help. Please help

As you haven’t received many answers, I’ve reclassified your question to the Gnome section, but could you do me a favour and press the three dots … below your post and press the to give us more information so we can see what’s really going on.

An inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width would be the minimum required information for us to be able to help you. (Personally Identifiable Information like serial numbers and MAC addresses will be filtered out by the above command)

I’m not a Gnome user (KDE here) but on KDE I’d like to see a xinput list as well for touchpad issues…

Tbh switching to one of the newest kernels worked out for me
