I have an old AIO PC and its touch panel is not working properly. Are there any DEs or distros that doesnt have touch support?
Edit: Thanks to everyone that replied and suggested solutions. For me this worked: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-blacklist-a-module-on-ubuntu-debian-linux
Did you mean with touch support? They can all work without touch if you just don’t use it.
Gnome works quite well with touch. I had to jump through some hoops to get KDE Plasma to work well enough on my Steam Deck. I have to use three different on screen keyboards (Maliit, Onboard and Steam’s) depending on what I’m doing.
No. The touch panel is making ghost inputs. So, I want to get a DE without touch support or need to figure out how I can disable touch input.
You may have to look into figuring out which driver Linux is using for your touchscreen then blacklist that module so that it doesn’t load anymore.
You won! Blacklisting the module worked!!
Thank you!!!
You can definitely disable the touch pad in any distro. Try the steps in the best answer here
xinput --disable
is not working due to WaylandThen you have your solution. Use x11 and be done with it
Just use X is not a solution
I kinda understand you, but it would fix the issue, so it is a solution
So would buying a new computer. Its all a matter of perspective I suppost.
Blocklist the device at a kernel level
Just disable the device. I assume it is a USB device.
