Subject: Re: [PATCH] HID: logitech-hidpp: add a module parameter to keep
 firmware gestures

Hello again!

I recently rebooted my laptop just to find out that my touchpad
stopped working: no more gestures, no more button clicks supported,
tap-to-click is very laggy.
Just checked the module history and found commit
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/cae253d6033da885e71c29c1591b22838a52de76
with description about "desktop environments can and
should support touchpad gestures through libinput". Unfortunately my
environment (Fedora 39 KDE) doesn't support it out-of-the-box, and I
don't know how to return all the handful features that my touchpad
provided.

Right now it's slightly better than useless.

Is there a way to return this option back? Or provide any guides on
how to properly setup all the features?

P.S. Sorry for the duplicate - the mail-lists rejected my previous
message because of an accidental HTML subpart.
