[RESPONDED] Reduce Effective Touchpad Area on Linux

[MJ1]

@a_framework_owner

I mean is the Framework touchpad even from Synaptics ?

The linux synaptics driver also supports other brands, I know alps works.

But it looks like Framework uses a PixArt PCT3854QR. So I think you may be out of luck.

Also, linux touchpad drivers can just be crap. And I say this as someone who loves linux and has used it on desktop for over 10 years. Though, I find synaptics to be fine, for the little I use my touchpad.

Subpar touchpad

The irony of this post is that the compliant is completely and utterly lodged at the Linux distro you are using, and is outside of Framework’s control. Have you tried Windows 10? The trackpad is glorious. Super precise and gestures all work flawlessly. Microsoft actually invested a lot of time in creating trackpad drivers that are pretty great.
