[Bug 1399096] Re: Touchpad lost function after switch from guest to user account

 

@Rober,

I think they are different.

I found there is a solution that can fix the issue.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics#Xorg.log.0_shows_SynPS.2F2_Synaptics_touchpad_can_not_grab_event_device.2C_errno.3D16

I have add GrabEventDevice=0 option to xorg.conf and it works fine now.
Mouse cursor now can move after session is changed.
