Touchpad sometimes stops responding

Post by Vertigo »

My touchpad sometimes stops responding. Sometimes it only works with two-three fingers (normally one-finger movement) until I reset it with xinput, this current alias is used to reset the touchpad:

Code: Select all

alias fixTouch="xinput disable 11
xinput disable 12
sleep 15
xinput enable 12"
Output of xinput --list:

Code: Select all

xinput --list
