Description Hubert Kaschulke 2016-06-16 04:15:38 UTC
Systemeinstellungen -> Touchpad -> Touchpad ein-/ausschalten -> Touchpad abschalten, wenn eine Maus angeschlossen ist
(as I use a German version it might be: system settings -> touchpad -> touchpad  turn on/off -> touchpad turn off, when mouse is connected)
If this parameter is set to true the system forgets it after restarting, but when you are going to set it "again" it remembers and gives a short message that it set it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set system settings -> touchpad -> touchpad  turn on/off -> touchpad turn off, when mouse is connected to true
2. restart
3. touchpad is enabled
4. go to Set system settings -> touchpad -> touchpad  turn on/off
5. expect a message, that the system now will disable the touchpad although it should have already been disabled. 

Actual Results:  
touchpad enabled

Expected Results:  
touchpad not enabled

KDE-Plasma-Version: 5.5.5
Qt-Version: 5.5.1
Kernel-Version: 4.1.21-14-default
Linux: openSuse "Leap" 42.1

For your understanding: I'm not a Linux expert, I'm just another stupid Linux user who wants to help. I don't know which component causes the problem, because I didn't design KDE, you know. So I choose "plasma-applet" but could be "daemon" ior "kcm" as well because I don't know what plasma-applet, daemon and kcm do.

And this https://bugs.kde.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Touchpad-KCM does not really help: 
daemon - Bugs relating to the Daemon component
kcm - Bugs relating to the control module
plasma-applet - Bugs relating to the Plasma applet 
Who thinks up something like this?

Hello! This bug report concerns the Synaptics version of the Touchpad page, which is no longer supported in Plasma 6. Can you please see if the issue still happens when using Libinput? If so, please change the status back to "REPORTED." If not, go ahead and change it to "RESOLVED FIXED", or let the bot do it automatically after a month. Thanks!
