Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

I recently bought an asus zenbook 14 (AMD version) and the scroll speed of the touch pad is quite fast.

Does anybody know how to change this?

I'm using Nixos 24.05, Gnome/Wayland

Yeah, seems like it. I was hoping I could configure the touchpad via xinput or libinput. But I didn't find anything yet that works for this laptop.

You can't configure it but there's patches around where you can hardcode a modifier with very minor side effects.

The thing with Wayland, and things like libinput, is that it wants to give the compositor a lot of power and hopefully enable more things, so there's not one implementation like Xorg that you're just stuck with what it provides. The compositor knows more about what's going on, and the application even more so. So in theory you can have all sorts of inertia curves. But in the meantime we have this silly situation, where you can't even adjust it at all.

Yeah, it’s a weird situation. Any idea where I can find these patches or what terms I soils search for to find them myself?
