Description wizard10000 2017-05-19 11:30:06 UTC
Dell Precision M4800 using systemsettings5 keyboard map for Dell Precision M-Series.

Touchpad toggle (Fn-F5) does not work unless systemsettings5 is opened to the touchpad tab, after that it works fine until reboot.

I don't have to make any changes to touchpad settings to get it to work, all I have to do is open systemsettings5 --> Input Devices --> Touchpad and the keyboard toggle will start working.  Breaks again if you reboot.

Sorry but ktouchpadneabler for Plasma 4 is unmaintained (basically can't fix something that isn't being released anymore)
Comment 2 wizard10000 2017-05-20 02:18:41 UTC
My apologies.  This is an issue with Plasma5 in Neon Dev Unstable.

Can you route to the proper team, please?

Thank you -

Correction.  Neon Dev Testing.

Hello wizard10000, three questions:

* Is this still reproducible for you with current Plasma?

* Does it only happen with the default function keyboard shortcut (Fn+F5) or does it happen with global shortcuts as well?

* Are you using synaptics/evdev or libinput? (if touchpad is tabbed and full of features, it's synaptics)

I think this should be under the product frameworks-kglobalaccel or kwin, but I'm not entirely sure.
