[Solved]Problems with external mouse and touchpad.

Hello,
I'm facing some weird problems with my mouse. I'm using Arch with KDE in my laptop. So in general I use touchpad. But today I wanted to try out a game so I plugged in my mouse. It's an old A4tech mouse. When I plugged in the mouse it doesn't detect suddenly. But after 20-30 seconds it gets detected. But then I can't use my mouse neither my touchpad. Courser moves but not a single buttons in the mouse or in the touchpad works properly. After recognizing the mouse a sticky note appears in the desktop as you all know it's a feature for touchpad 3 finger gesture. Then I can click for the first time then nothing works. Sometimes I can click and move window here and there but it freezes there. I mean courser freezer in the moving window mode. I have to press Esc to be able to move the courser. At that time my touchpad clicks doesn't work. I can move the courser with touchapd but clicks doesn't work. I've unchecked the option "Disable touchpad when mouse is plugged in" in KDE settings. After unplugging mouse touchpad starts working. Long story short I can't do anything after plugging in my mouse. It's annoying tbh. I hope someone can help.

Sorry for my bad English smile.

I have a similar issue with my laptop, but on boot. Long story short, try the following after inserting the mouse:

modprobe -r i2c_hid && modprobe i2c_hid

The command literally removes my touchpad. I had timeshift enabled. I didn't verify what this command is about lol.

When the

i2c_hid

it works again.
