Bug Description
Previously in 15.10 I had the following rule in /usr/share/
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Touchscreen disable"
MatchIsTouc
Option "Ignore" "on"
EndSection
This worked in disabling the touchpad on my lenovo T440s
After the upgrade to 16.04 I noticed that my touchpad would not work. And I found the following lines in the log:
[ 3107.956] (II) config/udev: Adding input device SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad (/dev/input/event6)
[ 3107.956] (**) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Ignoring device from InputClass "Touchscreen disable"
[ 3107.956] (II) config/udev: Adding input device SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad (/dev/input/mouse0)
[ 3107.956] (**) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Ignoring device from InputClass "Touchscreen disable"
So I had to disable the rule in order to be able to use the touchpad, and now I can't disable the touchscreen.
