I'm pulling out a touch enabled device to test this now. As is this can't be merged due to the excessive pinning to git hashes for dependencies. Please package the dependencies as distinct packages as required per policy.

works decently for me on a touchscreen laptop, x86_64-glibc: https://i.qrm.cat/7f626d4b552.jpg

@the-maldridge This doesn't make sense for LVGL which is meant to be customized via header configs on a per-project basis and is built-in to the final executable (it's also included as a submodule in the git repo); so far there haven't been any packages which use LVGL in srcpkgs.

I'll see what I can do about squeek2lvgl though, that could maybe get packaged separately.

ok I've had the service for this active for a bit, and I believe it's causing ctrl to be stuck on in my x session when it's running. downing the service made this behaviour stop.

@classabbyamp sorry for checking in on this so late. I'm following up from https://gitlab.com/cherrypicker/buffyboard/-/issues/21. Do you remember by any chance what kind of actions you've done in Buffyboard before switching to X? Buffyboard emulates a physical keyboard under the hood so I assume it's possible for keys to get stuck somehow though I haven't so far seen this myself.

[classabbyamp]

I'm going to guess it would be caused by using ctrl+alt+f# to switch ttys

[Johennes]

Hm, I just tested that locally but CTRL did not end up stuck for me. I could see how it would get stuck when the CTRL key on buffyboard was left active before switching the VT. However, the modifiers in buffyboard auto-release after the first non-modifier key. Will have to poke at this some more.
