Keyboard detected as a mouse
My system is recognizing the my keyboard as a mouse and keyboard at the same time.
I am trying to disable my touchpad if a external mouse is connected (through settings in plasma) but the touchpad will disable even though there is no mouse connected to it.
In my ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 GA402XV_GA402XV

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
I am using Wayland.
But what makes you believe that the keyboard is detected as mouse tbw?
Ans: 1) It is being listed under mouse in Plasma on Wayland as ASUS Keyboard.
2) What I am trying to is disable touchpad when a mouse a connected? But selecting that option makes it disabled even if mouse isn't connected.

Find "Device type assignment via udev" and adjust it to get rid of ID_INPUT_MOUSE, ID_INPUT_TOUCH* and ID_INPUT_TABLET

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
This didn't work.
This program is for debugging only, it does not run any program
specified by a RUN key. It may show incorrect results, because
some values may be different, or not available at a simulation run.

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
Is this how you unset LIBINPUT_DEVICE_CAP_POINTER?
ACTION=="add|change", KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="0b05", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="19b6", ENV{ID_INPUT_TOUCH*}="", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}="", ENV{ID_INPUT_TABLET}="", ENV{.INPUT_CLASS}="" ENV{ID_INPUT_KEY}="" ENV{LIBINPUT_DEVICE_CAP_POINTER}=""Then it is not working. Capabilities is still keyboard pointer.
P.S. I couldn't find anything unsetting "LIBINPUT_DEVICE_CAP_POINTER".

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
Apparently not this way, LIBINPUT_DEVICE_CAP_POINTER is actually an enum in libinput.
My last best guess would be a quirk:
AttrInputProp=-INPUT_PROP_POINTER;https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinpu … uirks.html
I'd then have to read up the libinput code to figure where it's drawing that position from.

Is this correct
[Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 2021 keyboard]
MatchVendor=0x0B05
MatchProduct=0x19B6
AttrInputProp=-INPUT_PROP_POINTERIf so this didn't solve the problem.

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
Where should I add that
In the 99-local.quirks it will cause the error
libinput list-devices
Unknown key AttrEventCodeDisable in [Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 2021 keyboard] (99-local.quirks)
Failed to load the device quirks from /usr/share/libinput and /etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks. This will negatively affect device behavior. See [url]https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/1.29.1/device-quirks.html[/url] for details.The config I typed is this.
[Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 2021 keyboard]

MatchProduct=0x19B6
AttrInputProp=-INPUT_PROP_POINTER
AttrEventCodeDisable=REL_WHEEL;REL_HWHEEL;REL_WHEEL_HI_RES;REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES;Also this keyboard doesn't have a wheel.

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
I think I found a reason for the unknown key error.
The docs oneline is for 1.13 and the url givstien by the error https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinpu … uirks.html returns a 404.
So, I greped the docs in the source code and got this
The issue can be fixed by adding a quirk to unset the ``REL_WHEEL_HI_RES`` and
``REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES`` event codes: ::AttrEventCode=-REL_WHEEL_HI_RES;-REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES;
So, I did
AttrEventCode=-REL_WHEEL;-REL_HWHEEL;-REL_WHEEL_HI_RES;-REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES;Though the keyboard is still being detected as a pointer. The above format get rid of the key error.

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
That's bad, because the most relevant event codes would be REL_WHEEL and REL_HWHEEL (the quirks don't have a stable API and I was kinda hoping the event codes would generically be supported)
Have you btw. tried to also remove "ID_INPUT_POINTINGSTICK" w/ the udev role?
(Does the keyboard have a nipple?

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
Does it show up as two devices in "sudo evtest"?
Does it (or one of them) list REL_*WHEEL?
Should be event7 - what's event3? (atkbd, does it respond on key presses?)
You'll most likely have to file a bug, probably to libinput to add a quirk to filter those event codes.
In the meantime you could go the other way round and introduce a udev rule that disables the touchpad when a mouse gets attached.
Obstacle there is going to be "wayland" because xinput likely won't work.
Afaik KWin uses wlroots, so https://man.archlinux.org/man/sway-inpu … FIGURATION might work (and if you're super-lucky
sway-input input "ASUSTek Computer, Inc. N-KEY Device" events disabled_on_external_mousewill just work implicitly…

Re: Keyboard detected as a mouse
Your immediate problem is that
Event code 6 (REL_HWHEEL)
Event code 8 (REL_WHEEL)are showing up there but I'm out of ideas on how to prevent that and possibly ignoring them in libinput (via quirk) would be be more correct approach anyway.
seth wrote:
You'll most likely have to file a bug, probably to libinput to add a quirk to filter those event codes.
In the meantime you could go the other way round and introduce a udev rule that disables the touchpad when a mouse gets attached.
Obstacle there is going to be "wayland" because xinput likely won't work.Afaik KWin uses wlroots, so https://man.archlinux.org/man/sway-inpu … FIGURATION might work (and if you're super-lucky
sway-input input "ASUSTek Computer, Inc. N-KEY Device" events disabled_on_external_mousewill just work implicitly…
