How do I debug libinput --list-devices not recognizing touchpad and touch screen on a laptop?

#Linux #freedesktop

for a graphics tablet I needed to write a configuration file, maybe something similar is needed for touchscreens/pads too?

`libinput debug-events --verbose` should show logs why a device is rejected - provided the kernel exports it. If the latter isn't true, you're looking at a kernel issue, but file one with libinput anyway and we can go from there.
