Hacks

Zsh word navigation

Ctrl-{arrow} and Home/End not working as expected. To fix this we should add to the ~/.zshrc the following

bindkey "^[[1;5C" forward-word
bindkey "^[[1;5D" backward-word
bindkey  "^[[H"   beginning-of-line
bindkey  "^[[F"   end-of-line

Disable touchscreen

X11

Use xinput list to identify the touch screen device. Usually it should be found under Virtual core pointer, and by process of elimination we can narrow the specific device.

Before making permanent configuration, assuming the device id is 123, check if disabling it actually disables the touch screen by

xinput disable 123

Now, enable it again with

xinput enable 123

Assuming the name of the device is SomeDevice, we want to create a configuration that tells X11 to ignore this device.

The configruations are most likely at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. Add a conf there such as 99-disable-touchscreen.conf with the contents:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Disable touchscreen"
    MatchProduct "SomeDevice"
    Option "Ignore" "on"
EndSection

Now enjoy without this stupid touch screen.
