Hi everyone,

I have an old laptop with a broken keyboard and touchpad. I’m using an external keyboard and mouse, but I’d like to disable the internal keyboard and touchpad to prevent accidental inputs.

I was able to do this on Linux Mint using the xinputcommand, but it doesn’t seem to work on Fedora. I’ve attached screenshots of the output of xinputon both Linux Mint and Fedora.

Can anyone help me figure out how to disable the internal keyboard and touchpad on Fedora?

Thanks!
