Booting with USB mouse connected -> touchpad disabled

I've been having this issue for a while. I decided to start collecting info whenever it happened, so here it is.

Computer info: 3700U, ASUS Zenbook, running under Wayland. Kernel 5.9.10-arch1-1

When I boot the laptop if I have my USB mouse connected I cannot use the touchpad. I'm guessing some module is not loading on boot, so I collected the output of lsmod for three scenarios, all of them after reboot:

Scenario 1: touchpad working, USB mouse disconnected:

Would anyone be able to help me identify what's missing? Or how would I be able to do so myself?
Thanks.

Re: Booting with USB mouse connected -> touchpad disabled

What normally happens is that this is a intentional configuration on behalf of your environment because they assume that's what you want (and I'd say the majority of people want that). Check through your settings in GNOME or whatever you're using here.

Hey V1del, thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, https://imgur.com/a/0k6VEVO this is what's available as mouse options. If I unplug the USB mouse after a boot where the touchpad isn't working, the touchpad does not start working again.

I don't think this is intentional - if I boot with the USB mouse disconnected and connect it afterwards, the touchpad still works at the same time and the configuration page from the screenshot has another set of options for the touchpad.

Re: Booting with USB mouse connected -> touchpad disabled

Might also be an issue with Asus WMI, there was a similar thread for xorg, maybe give the following udev rule a shot: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 8#p1926138
