As of recently, this guide is only written for Ubuntu. But it shouldn't be too hard to adjust for other distributions.
This guide used to be based upon libinput-gestures, but is now using fusuma
Please install fusuma according to its installation guide. In short:
sudo gpasswd -a $USER input
sudo apt install ruby libinput-tools wmctrl libevdev-dev ruby-dev
sudo gem install fusuma fusuma-plugin-wmctrl fusuma-plugin-keypress fusuma-plugin-sendkeymkdir -p ~/.config/fusuma
vim ~/.config/fusuma/config.ymlExample configurations are available on the fusuma repository. Mine is included inside this repo. To use it:
cp -v fusuma-config.yml ~/.config/fusuma/config.ymlplace /etc/systemd/system/fusuma.service:
[Unit]
Description=Fusuma
StartLimitIntervalSec=500
StartLimitBurst=5
[Service]
User=jeffrey
Group=jeffrey
Environment="DISPLAY=:0"
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/fusuma
Type=simple
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5s
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Obviously, adjust the User and Group settings
And enable the service:
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable --now fusuma.serviceIn order to get the touchpad to work properly, create the following file:
/etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks:
[Touchpad touch override]
MatchUdevType=touchpad
MatchName=*Magic Trackpad 2
AttrPressureRange=2:0
AttrTouchSizeRange=20:10
Last time I tested the touchpad with KDE Plasma on 20.04 (Neon), I needed to configure the Trackpad through xorg settings
mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-libinput.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
