It used to be that you could make a file ~/.xinput.d/en_US
and put xinput
commands in there, such as enabling drag lock. Now, for some reason, in 13.04 this does not work. Anyone know why this changed, and how to set these? I suppose I could just put the xinput commands in a script file and have it execute upon login. I'm just wondering why the old method stopped working.
EDIT:
Current file /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/en_US
:
xinput set-prop 17 316 1
xinput set-prop 17 317 350
But I've realized that for some reason, the touchpad ID changes. Right now it's 15. Also, the actual properties such as "Drag Lock" can change. So this method doesn't work.
