Oh yeah, the good old days... ;)
Yes, there was a firmware folder, it only contained a .deb of
linux-firmware.
You can safely have all the firmware .deb's in the /firmware folder. The
installer installs only the needed ones.
Well, #2 is about a serious bug that makes unrelated things just not
work when you enable "disable touchpad while typing". It seems to me
this bug should be fixed, but it is not related to enabling the touch
functionality on the... touch pad. ;) Probably not related to gnome only
either...
Sorry if I didn't make myself clear. I just meant that in this bug
report, also your expected settings were chosen:
---------
Then I set:
- enable clicks with touchpad
- two-finger scrolling
---------
So your user is not the only one to want those enabled.
Yeah, this seems to be a problem larger than plymouth actually. On the
top of my head, fixing this would probably involve:
* triggers
* a way to hook into /etc/grub.d/10_linux to add boot parameters from
outside
* lots more bikeshedding
Unless we make plymouth a hard dependency, which would probably involve
around 1500 emails on -devel, so let's pretend I didn't say anything. ;)
OK, let's just pretend that. ;)
Do you agree that this bug can be closed now?
Best regards and a happy new year,
Andreas
