Why doesn't hyprland see the touchpad?

The command "hyprctl devices" sees and shows the touchpad([timur@tpc ~]$ hyprctl devices
mice:
    Mouse at 61d8c6187980:
        gxt7863:00-27c6:01e0-mouse
            default speed: 0.00000
    Mouse at 61d8c6188740:
        gxt7863:00-27c6:01e0-touchpad
            default speed: 0.00000
    Mouse at 61d8c6199980:
        yichip-wireless-device-mouse
            default speed: 0.00000
    Mouse at 61d8c5efc920:
        yichip-wireless-device-consumer-control-1
            default speed: 0.00000),

but when I save the configuration(
device {
}
device {
name = gxt7863:00-27c6:01e0-touchpad
}
), I can't use the touchpad anymore. Can you explain what this is about and how to fix it?(sorry for my crooked English).

Unless touchpad is broken everywhere, I would search or ask at issues there: https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues
