1- instaliraj xinput
sudo dnf install xinput


2- kreiraj skriptu u ~/my_scripts kao 'toggle-touchpad.sh'


#!/bin/sh

TOUCHPAD_STATUS=$(xinput list-props "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad" | grep 'Device Enabled' | awk '{ print $4 }')

if [ "$TOUCHPAD_STATUS" == "1" ]; then
    xinput disable "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad"
    notify-send --icon=dialog-information "Disabled" "Your computer's touchpad is disabled."
else
    xinput enable "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad"
    notify-send --icon=dialog-information "Enabled" "Your computer's touchpad is enabled."
fi

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3- u keyboard shortcuts, stavi kao:
/home/igor/my_scripts/toggle-touchpad.sh

i make sure, da pritisnes, Fn + F9 na keyboard od laptopa, ne sa eksterne tastature (jer eksterna tastatura ima na F9, za volume control).
jer onda prepozna kao "Touchpad toggle"
