Arch Linux + i3 — touchscreen-primary

1. Install dependencies

sudo pacman -S rofi dunst brightnessctl pamixer networkmanager \
               alacritty xorg-xinput xorg-xrandr i3lock \
               iio-sensor-proxy onboard thunar libreoffice-fresh

yay -S touchegg xdotool wmctrl

2. Deploy scripts

mkdir -p ~/.config/tablet

cp dashboard_hub.sh    ~/.config/tablet/
cp osk_toggle.sh       ~/.config/tablet/
cp quick_controls.sh   ~/.config/tablet/
cp power_menu.sh       ~/.config/tablet/
cp rotation_daemon.sh  ~/.config/tablet/

chmod +x ~/.config/tablet/*.sh

3. Configure i3

cp ~/.config/i3/config ~/.config/i3/config.bak
cat i3_config_tablet >> ~/.config/i3/config

4. Set up touchegg gestures

# Enable the system daemon
sudo systemctl enable --now touchegg

# Deploy gesture config
mkdir -p ~/.config/touchegg
cp touchegg_config.xml ~/.config/touchegg/touchegg.conf

# Add to i3 config if not already there:
# exec --no-startup-id touchegg

5. Enable auto-rotation

sudo systemctl enable --now iio-sensor-proxy
# Test: monitor-sensor (tilt tablet and watch output)

6. Tap-to-click (persistent)

sudo mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
sudo tee /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf << 'XEOF'
Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "touchscreen"
    MatchIsTouchscreen "on"
    Driver "libinput"
    Option "Tapping" "on"
    Option "NaturalScrolling" "true"
    Option "DisableWhileTyping" "false"
EndSection

Troubleshooting

Touchegg gestures not working: Run systemctl status touchegg — the system daemon must be running. Also check ps aux | grep touchegg — you need TWO processes (root daemon + user client). The user client is started by exec --no-startup-id touchegg in i3 config.

Auto-rotation not working: Check systemctl status iio-sensor-proxy and run monitor-sensor. Some Fujitsu tablets need: sudo modprobe industrialio Add to /etc/modules-load.d/tablet.conf to persist.

Touchscreen device name: Run xinput list to find the exact name, then update the grep pattern in quick_controls.sh and rotation_daemon.sh if rotation isn't working.
