Please describe your issue:

Can't update chroot as the target 'touch' seems to be always enabled.

If known, describe the steps to reproduce the issue:

Run the following command: sudo /usr/local/bin/crouton -u -n buster -t xiwi,extension

How does one disable targets on the command line?

@cvmiller,

Can't update chroot as the target 'touch' seems to be always enabled.

Do you mean the 'touch' target is failing to install and in turn causing the chroot installation to also fail?

It appears that the 'touch' target installs the 'touchegg' package so if it got installed then removing it should be a first step with:

There's also a config file that crouton uses, you can remove it too if you like from here:

There's no good programmatic way to remove or uninstall a target currently. What I do and what occasionally works ( ;-) ) for me is to remove the targets in the chroot's target files located here:

Note: you'll have to be root to edit the files but simply open them and remove the 'touch' target, save, then update your chroot: sudo crouton -n buster -u

Hope this helps, -DennisLfromGA

I was on the road, and finally had time to test out your work-around. The good news is that removing 'touch' from /etc/crouton/targets does solve the problem, and I can do updates.

However, I have lost touch-tap capability both in Xiwi and Xorg on my trackpad, something I had before. We need a better solution for Debian, a supported version, for Crouon. The trackpad 'touch-tap' used to work in Debian Buster.

Hoping for this too -- tap works in xiwi, but not xorg...looking into what it would take to setup manually for xorg, looks like the gestures aren't being recognized since touchegg doesn't seem to work at all

SteveDesmond-ca commented 2 years ago

OK, solution for now:

  1. sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (no touchegg required)
  2. synclient TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 TapButton3=2 (2 and 3 are flipped for me, these might be different for you) -- these should ideally go in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/synaptics.conf

I'm not sure these are generic enough to add to the touch target...

I am glad you found a solution. I am curious, if you got 2-finger scrolling back as well?

SteveDesmond-ca commented 2 years ago

Yeah, once you install the synaptics driver, you can run synclient without any args to see all the available options and their current/default values, and there are a bunch of scrolling settings there
