Screen Brightness and Elantech Touchpad

[symmetria.gop]

Hello to all.

I just install FreeBSD 13-Beta2 @ KDE plasma desktop. Everything works fine except two issues:
1) I can not make my Fn keys for brightness to work. In general there is no way to adjust the brightness.
2) I have not found any way to my elantech touchpad to work although I have set
hw.psm.elantech_support=1
in /boot/loader.conf and I have libsynaptics xf86-inpuit-synaptics installed.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

Have you tried loading moused first on rc.conf file and see if it'll move your cursor then you can adjust the setting from there.

moused_port="/dev/psm0"
moused_type="auto"
moused_enable="YES"

1) Are you using graphics/drm-fbsd13-kmod?
Also, does xev command report anything when pressing Fn+Brightness keys?

2) The line "hw.psm.elantech_support=1" isn't necessary anymore. It's now part of generic kernel.
Don't install xf86-inpuit-synaptics, use x11/libinput instead. Moused shouldn't be needed either.
If you haven't changed "kern.evdev.rcpt_mask" value, the following command should report a value of 12:
sudo sysctl kern.evdev.rcpt_mask
That's the way it should be, unless you plan using moused service.
