Touchpad support #79

Open jcrben opened 6 months ago

jcrben commented 6 months ago

I'm on a Gigabyte A5 K1 right now running Windows 11. It doesn't look like hwinfo reports the touchpad, but I was able to pull it up from the System Information. image

It would be particularly helpful if hwinfo could report screwed up drivers. Somehow there was some sort of reset to my drivers which screwed them up. I had to uninstall the touchpad driver - using the Device Manager - and restart to fix it.

Hi and thanks for the suggestion. To be honest, I think that reporting driver issues is out of the scope for hwinfo (at least for now). However, reporting input devices such as touchpad sounds reasonable to me. I will evaluate on this!

Noticed you added wontfix, feel free to close this if you can't figure out a good way to grab the touchpad device
