Comment 1 Nate Graham 2018-06-14 22:05:15 UTC
You're using Libinput, right? Is there *anything* that's not grayed out on any of the tabs?
Comment 2 kts 2018-06-15 05:35:30 UTC
Yes, it's libinput. Some are not grayed out but most are.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2018-06-15 12:45:38 UTC
Can you supply a screenshot for each tab so I can see what's up?

Comment 11 Nate Graham 2018-06-15 13:58:43 UTC
Thanks. So most of this is just the standard issue of the UI not being appropriate for Libinput. We are aiming to fix this for Plasma 5.14.

The issue of everything on the Enable/Disable Touchpad being disabled is now and a regression. We'll use this bug to track that.
Comment 12 kts 2018-06-15 15:47:32 UTC
Love to hear that. Thank you! I always love KDE.
Comment 13 Roman Gilg 2018-09-03 23:05:18 UTC
I can't reproduce the enable/disable touchpad tab being greyed out on master with Neon bionic.

There also was not really a change to the Touchpad KCM in 5.13, that could be the reason for this problem. I assume the problem is more in the lower stack here.
Comment 14 Nate Graham 2018-09-04 03:34:48 UTC
I can't either. Let's call this fixed and re-open it if we get any more reports. Thanks Roman!
