There are other reports of touchpad problems. I don't know whenever that is a general problem or specific to some devices. libinput knows quirks for lots of input devices. When passing through the evdev to the guest as virtio device libinput can't see the device identity and thus can't apply quirks. Which might be the reason the touchpad doesn't work. Using libinput on the host side might fix this. cheers, Gerd _______________________________________________ vfio-users mailing list vfio-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/vfio-users
