Title:
Kernel 5.0 touchpad tap-to-click disables after a few hours
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Issue:
On a Dell XPS 13 9350, with HWE Kernel 5.0, when tap-to-click is enabled in
cinnamon, after a few hours of use tap-to-click will cease to work.
If I go into cinnamon's touchpad preferences in this state (without
changing anything), the tap-to-click option will still appear enabled
and will work again for a few hours until this step needs repeating.
Steps to reproduce
Enable touchpad tap-to-click, and use the computer for a few hours.
