I am currently using Fedora 43 KDE, and this issue only recently popped up. My trackpad is being exceptionally borky, I can’t accurately use it without any jitters and jumps! I have no idea why this is happening. Like when I try and click a button, the trackpad decides to jump to the button below for who knows why. For reference, when I use a mouse, it tracks fine, and the touchscreen still works. I think my stylus does as well. It’s just something to do with the trackpad. How do I fix my trackpad? Is there a way to “recalibrate” it or something?

The issue does not disappear when I a) restarted sddm and b) restarted my computer

edit: It’s way worse now, the trackpad has a mind of its own!!! A link to a screencap (I tried my best to keep it in the rectangular box…): https://codeberg.org/sbird/video_share/src/branch/main/Screencast_20260203_102732.webm

My trackpad has fully gone rogue, it’s moving incredibly erratically and now it’s even clicking and holding when I’m not! Infuriating indeed.

edit 2: I have restarted again and it magically seemed to fix itself! That’s fun. Why the first restart didn’t work I have no idea. Two is bigger than one I guess, and bigger is always better…
