Even though this title suggest it’s for peakago linux, it’s main focus is about how to configure the iio sensor for the correct screen rotation.

Software:

ubuntu

Peakago Windows 10 drivers (drivers)

Gathering Information:

sensor:modalias:acpi:[driver name]*:dmi:*:svn[Manufacturer]*:pn[Product Name]:*

udevadm info -n /dev/iio:device0

dmidecode | grep Manufacturer

dmidecode | grep Product

Lets put things together:

we first need to create a file called “61-sensor-local.hwdb” this way we wont accidently edit the 60-sensor file.

sudo nano /lib/udev/hwdb.d/61-sensor-local.hwdb

and in that file we create the string we need

sensor:modalias:acpi:BOSC0200*:dmi:*:svnPeakago*:pnDefaultstring:*

followed by a new line of the correct rotation matrix

sensor:modalias:acpi:BOSC0200*:dmi:*:svnPeakago*:pnDefaultstring:*
 ACCEL_MOUNT_MATRIX=-1,0,0;0,1,0;0,0,1

now we can issue this command to update the hwdb

sudo udevadm hwdb --update

once everything is in place, we can now reboot.

Upgrade kernal to 5.4

if the ubuntu distro you are currently using i.e PopOS! 19.10, you are probably stuck on kernel 5.3. Kernal 5.4+ is needed for the mouse driver to work so here is a little work around to download and install the latest drivers

cd /tmp/
wget -c https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4/linux-headers-5.4.0-050400_5.4.0-050400.201911242031_all.deb
wget -c https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4/linux-headers-5.4.0-050400-generic_5.4.0-050400.201911242031_amd64.deb
wget -c https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4/linux-image-unsigned-5.4.0-050400-generic_5.4.0-050400.201911242031_amd64.deb
wget -c https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4/linux-modules-5.4.0-050400-generic_5.4.0-050400.201911242031_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Firefox touchscreen scrolling fix

For touch scrolling to work with firefox there is a setting we will need to enable “MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1”. now there are two ways to enable this feature. one is to start the program in termal with

env MOX_USE_XINPUT2=1 firefox

and the second which i recommend is to make it system wide on boot.

edit:

/etc/security/pam_env.conf

add this line

MOZ_USE_XINPUT2 DEFAULT=1

lastly if you want to have two finger scroll instead of one you can change this option inside firefox in the about:config

and edit this

dom.w3c_touch_events.enabled=1

default is 2

Fixing Audio

This fix does not apply to all distros, I have only experienced this on Elementary OS (5.1) (18.04) where you will only see dummy audio for es8316.

Note: I did not create this script and was pulled from this post: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2391606

Downlad es8316.sh

sudo ./es8316.sh

reboot.

Right Click Mouse Wheel Scrolling

This was mentioned to me on a discord “Peakago Discuss Group” by user “Achilles” to add a nice feature to our Peakago, which is scrolling while holding right click.

Method 1

This is the easy method but will not survive reboot / suspend but you can always put this command in your auto start. Running this command in termial will enable right click scrolling.

xinput set-prop 11 “libinput Scroll Method Enabled” 0, 0, 1

Method 2

This is would be the best method but invovle a little bit more work. you will need to create a file “99-peakago-touchpad.conf” and save it in the “/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/” directory.

Tip: in this file you can also add acceleration for the mouse and other options. check libinput man

sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-peakago-touch.conf

then add this into the file

Section "InputClass"

 Identifier "SIPODEV Lenovo HID Device Name"

 MatchIsPointer "on"

 MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"

 Driver "libinput"

 Option "ScrollMethod" "button"

 Option "ScrollButton" "3"

EndSection

Reboot
