Touchpad driver for Linux
by salmanahmed from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6JKQY)
Hi
I have recently purchased (a used) Dell G3 laptop and installed Manjaro KDE. I want to configure its touchpad (i.e palm detection, palm width etc). However, Touchpad under System Settings is presenting basic settings (see attached screenshot). The (cat /proc/bus/input/devices) command shows the touchpad as following:
Code:I: Bus=0018 Vendor=04f3 Product=30cb Version=0100
N: Name="DELL0949:00 04F3:30CB Touchpad"
P: Phys=i2c-DELL0949:00
S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.1/i2c_designware.1/i2c-25/i2c-DELL0949:00/0018:04F3:30CB.0002/input/input21
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=event16 mouse2
B: PROP=5
B: EV=1b
B: KEY=e520 10000 0 0 0 0
B: ABS=2e0800000000003
B: MSC=20and, "lshw" shows the touchpad as:
Code:*-input:7
product: DELL0949:00 04F3:30CB Touchpad
physical id: 9
logical name: input21
logical name: /dev/input/event16
logical name: /dev/input/mouse2
capabilities: i2cThis output does not help regarding determining the make and model. So, then I talked to the Dell Customer Support, who informed me that it is "8FNXG Click Pad, Mylar, Blue, includes Touchpad". I tried to look for relevant linux driver for this touchpad, but could not find one. So, my question is that is there any driver package for this touchpad which can help me to install and configure this touchpad?
