xenial (1) libinput-list-devices.1.gz

Provided by: libinput-tools_1.6.3-1ubuntu1~16.04.1_amd64 bug

NAME

       libinput-list-devices - list local devices as recognized by libinput

SYNOPSIS

       libinput-list-devices [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       The  libinput-list-devices  tool  creates  a  libinput  context on the default seat "seat0" and lists all
       devices regonized by  libinput.  Each  device  shows  available  configurations  the  respective  default
       configuration setting.

       For  configuration  options  that  allow  multiple  different  settings  (e.g.  scrolling), all available
       settings are listed. The default setting is prefixed by an asterisk (*).

       This tool usually needs to be run as root to have access to the /dev/input/eventX nodes.

OPTIONS

       --help  Print help

NOTES

       Some specific feature may still be available on a device even when no configuration is exposed, a lack of
       a configuration option does not necessarily mean that this feature does not work.

       A  device  may  be  recognized  by  libinput  but not handled by the X.Org libinput driver or the Wayland
       compositor.

       An xorg.conf(5) configuration entry or Wayland compositor setting may have changed  configurations  on  a
       device.  The  libinput-list-devices  tool  only shows the device's default configuration, not the current
       configuration.

                                                                                        LIBINPUT-LIST-DEVICES(1)
