# About
|
|
This a Linux userspace driver to enable and disable the touchpads on TongFang/Uniwill laptops using a HID command. **This will trigger the touchpad-disabled-LED, formerly unfunctional under linux.**
|
|
|
|
Most desktop environments already have a way to disable the touchpad, but this setting never reaches the firmware of the device. This driver listens to the session D-Bus and dispatches the approprita HID call to /dev/hidraw* whenever the setting changes, closing the gap to the device itself, and enabling the built in LED.
|
|
|
|
Currently this driver was only tested and works on the GDM greeter, GNOME Shell, Budgie, and KDE Plasmashell. All other environments, including the tty-console, work as before, meaning touchpad is always enabled on the HID level.
