I use Gnome as my main DE and I really like the touch gestures for my workflow, having a wireless trackpad would be really nice.
I’ve done some research before and seen that most wireless trackpads seem to work just fine with Linux, like the apple magic trackpad and an older out of production one from Logitech. But it doesn’t seem that wireless trackpads are super common so I wanted to ask if there were any others anyone could suggest?
I also had the thought that maybe I could make my own by buying a spare trackpad module from Framework but I don’t know how feasible that would actually be. I’ve never done anything like that but it seems like it could hypothetically be possible.
If it’s anything like mouse gestures, make sure to verify that it’ll work in Wayland.
Typically, touchpad gestures (particularly multi-touch gestures) will work better on Wayland, because it has
libinput.That’s good to know. I’ve been thinking of getting a trackpad, but I wasn’t sure if it would work with Wayland, if controlling windows, sending keys depending on the window, etc. would work as it does with X11. I might get one, after all.
