https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D241384 --- Comment #2 from Joshua Kinard <kumba@gentoo.org> --- It looks like 12.1-RELEASE fixed this, in a way. /dev/input/eventX is populated now, and it took some tweaking of kern.evdev.rcpt_mask to get the right devices to start recording events. I also had to make some adjustmen= ts to my xorg.conf file, following some instructions here: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2017-April/065653.html This leads to a working config block for the Touchpad: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Touchpad0" Driver "libinput" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event3" Option "AccelProfile" "adaptive" Option "DisableWhileTyping" "True" Option "MiddleEmulation" "True" Option "ScrollMethod" "edge" Option "Tapping" "True" Option "TappingDrag" "True" Option "TappingDragLock" "False" EndSection However, a small bug has manifested itself w/ security implications. I am noticing that when I type my username and password into the login fields on slim, that input is apparently being echoed to the virtual terminal that sl= im is running on. This is invisible, however, until you kill X or logout. Fo= r a brief second, when slim is restarting, both the username and password are visible in plaintext on the console. Once slim starts up, they can't be se= en again. I suspect this laptop being from ~2011 and a bit slow enhances the delay in slim's restart, allowing one to actually glimpse the echo'ed text. I don't recall seeing this when I was using kbd and /dev/psm0 under 12.0-RELEASE. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
