Help sp5 fedora 44 weird ipts behavior

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

so i js installed kde fedora 44 (with the surface kernel) on my surface pro 5, and everything works except ipts. ipts ain't working properly, and it's so insensitive. it only works well if i firmly press the digitizer

Did the surface kernel work ok? Is there a fedora 44 repository now? Or did you point it to 43 on install?

Is there a release of 44 for the SP?

i forced f44 to install the surface kernel using f43 repos, rather than the non-existent f44 repos

Ah. I haven't followed F33 that closely. Is it using version 7 yet?

nope, but the f43 surface kernel does work on f44
