Remove `xf86-input-synaptics` in Plasma edition
Discussed in https://github.com/geckolinux/geckolinux-project/discussions/450
Originally posted by tako-jerome November 4, 2022 edit : Gecko Rolling; update 11/3/2022 Brand new to Gecko and openSUSE generally, out of the box it's working quite well but I'm having an issue where, when typing, it's like the focus or selection (don't know the term sorry) is skipping all over the place. I'm using a samsung galaxy book pro 360 13", aka NP930QDB-KE01US, and this hasn't been an issue on any other OS I've demo'd (Ubuntu, Mint). I'll be typing, eg as I'm making this, or especially when running an alt+f2 command entry, and it's like the system wants to jump and try to input elsewhere on the screen. It's extremely glitchy trying to type, but aside from a sound card issue I've also had (and will post about later) the system is otherwise working fine.
This device has both a standard touchpad mouse and a touchscreen. I"m guessing one of them is too sensitive. Aside from playing around in the KDE system settings, are there any other ways I can try to roubleshoot this? I'm really hoping the answer isn't to just disable my touchscreen by default.

Edit 1 : I'll do my best to edit this and update as I can sneak research in during work today. Attached a screenshot of my touchpad settings - What are those ignored devices on the menu I can't access? Relevance? I tried increasing my keyboard timeout from 250ms (default) to 400ms and will report back later after typing more.
