Bug ID: 499702
Summary: Touchpad "Invert scroll direction (Natural scrolling)"
setting not synchronised between X11 and Wayland
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 6.2.5
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_touchpad
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: john....@pelago.org.uk
CC: duha.b...@gmail.com, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It seems that you have to set the setting for touchpad "Invert scroll direction
(Natural scrolling)" separately in both X11 and Wayland sessions.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a brand-new openSUSE Tumbleweed installation, with KDE Plasma
2. Login as a newly-created user in a "Plasma (X11)" session
3. Notice that scrolling is not inverted
4. Tick the touchpad "Invert scroll direction (Natural scrolling)" setting
5. Notice that scrolling is successfully inverted
6. Log out
7. Login as the same user, this time in a "Plasma (Wayland)" session
8. Notice that scrolling is back to being not inverted
9. Tick the touchpad "Invert scroll direction (Natural scrolling)" setting
again
10. Notice that scrolling is successfully inverted once more
OBSERVED RESULT
The setting needs to be set for both X11 and Wayland separately.
EXPECTED RESULT
Setting the setting in one session will set it in the other as well.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250206
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.10.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2
Kernel Version: 6.13.1-1-default (64-bit)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I realise that some things are necessarily different between X11 and Wayland,
but I think the average user would expect this setting to persist between the
two.
