Created attachment 127027 [details] Touchpad KCM on X11 xf86-input-libinput driver is installed and xf86-input-synaptics driver is not installed on my desktop computer running Arch Linux but I see the old Touchpad KCM in system settings when running X11 session anyway. On Wayland session I see the libinput Touchpad KCM as expected. Compare the attached screenshots please. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. use a desktop computer without a touchpad device and make sure synaptics touchpad driver is not installed 2. open system settings > input devices > touchpad on X11 session 3. open system settings > input devices > touchpad on X11 session on Wayland sesison EXPECTED RESULT libinput Touchpad kcm should always be present in system settings when synaptics touchpad driver is not installed.
