[StarLite Mk V] Add entry to ssdt to tell the OS the keyboard is internal #182

Open thmichel opened 6 days ago

I noticed that the setting "disable touchpad while typing" does not work on Fedora. Not sure about other distros. This is pretty annoying while typing longer texts.

Solution is to create a local override for libinput. To do so, create a file called "/etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks" with following content:

[Serial Keyboards] MatchVendor=0x27C6 MatchProduct=0x0111 MatchUdevType=keyboard AttrKeyboardIntegration=internal

Which way? And what model?

Ah, sorry. Starlite MK V. Amended the title. Without that quirk, the palm on the touchpad moves the cursor around while typing and sometimes initiates a mouse click. The reason seems to be that the keyboard is not considered to be internal.

To add to that: You can test this with the following command:

sudo libinput quirks list /dev/input/event11

It should bring back: AttrKeyboardIntegration=internal

Without the quirk, you get an empty response. event11 ist the keyboard as shown in the output from "sudo lininput list-devices": Device: GXTP7386:00 27C6:0111 Keyboard Kernel: /dev/input/event11
