NOTES

Some specific feature may still be available on a device even when no configuration is exposed, a lack of a configuration option does not necessarily mean that this feature does not work.

A device may be recognized by libinput but not handled by the X.Org libinput driver or the Wayland compositor.

An xorg.conf(5) configuration entry or Wayland compositor setting may have changed configurations on a device. The libinput list-devices tool only shows the device's default configuration, not the current configuration.
