Had to use the latest kernel for performance with the internal storage
(internal SD). But I hadn't thought to add libinput.

I went ahead and enabled that with services.xserver.libinput.enable =
true, and that didn't help as far as I can tell. Anything special you
did for your config?

Thanks,

Sam
