A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Original report

Haptic touchpad not working on XPS 2026 with Synaptics 06CB:D01Drevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:56 UTC via poll

Summary

The haptic touchpad fix introduced in v3.5.0 does not work on Dell XPS 2026 units with the Synaptics 06CB:D01D controller. The fix targets 06CB:D01A, which causes the daemon to crash-loop with "No Synaptics haptic touchpad hidraw device found" on D01D hardware.

Environment

  • Omarchy version: 3.5.0
  • Machine: Dell XPS 2026 (Intel Panther Lake)
  • Touchpad HID device: 06CB:D01D (vs. 06CB:D01A targeted by the fix)
HID_ID=0018:000006CB:0000D01D
HID_NAME=VEN_06CB:00 06CB:D01D
DRIVER=hid-multitouch

What happens

With the product ID patched to D01D, the daemon starts and finds the device correctly:

Haptic touchpad: hidraw=/dev/hidraw0 input=/dev/input/event8 intensity=40

The HIDIOCSFEATURE ioctl on REPORT_ID=0x37 executes without error, but no haptic feedback is felt.

Diagnosis

The HID descriptor of the D01D confirms that REPORT_ID=0x37 exists (Haptics Usage Page 0x0E, Usage 0x23 — Waveform Vendor Page, 8-bit, range 0–100), identical in structure to D01A. However, the ioctl silently has no effect on D01D hardware.

This suggests the D01D firmware requires either:
- A different REPORT_ID to trigger the haptic actuator, or
- A different report format (e.g., more bytes, different structure)

Additional findings:
- Hyprland does not use EVIOCGRAB on the touchpad — root can read event8 directly
- ABS_MT_PRESSURE and ABS_PRESSURE are exposed on event8
- The hardware button bit (byte[39] in Report 0x03) is always 0 — physical clicks are not reflected as a HID button bit; they are detected by the kernel via pressure/ISH

Workaround

None currently. The daemon runs but produces no haptic output on D01D.

Suggested fix

The product ID list in omarchy-haptic-touchpad should include D01D once the correct report format for D01D is identified. The fix likely requires reverse-engineering the D01D firmware or testing alternative REPORT_IDs from the HID descriptor.

Other feature reports present on the D01D that could be candidates:
- 0x08 — Feature, Digitizer page
- 0x0D — Feature, Digitizer page
- 0x50 — Feature, vendor page (FF00)
- 0x0F, 0x0E, 0x22 — Feature, vendor page

Happy to test patches if proposed.

## Summary

The haptic touchpad fix introduced in v3.5.0 does not work on Dell XPS 2026 units with the Synaptics **06CB:D01D** controller. The fix targets **06CB:D01A**, which causes the daemon to crash-loop with "No Synaptics haptic touchpad hidraw device found" on D01D hardware.

## Environment

- Omarchy version: 3.5.0
- Machine: Dell XPS 2026 (Intel Panther Lake)
- Touchpad HID device: `06CB:D01D` (vs. `06CB:D01A` targeted by the fix)

```
HID_ID=0018:000006CB:0000D01D
HID_NAME=VEN_06CB:00 06CB:D01D
DRIVER=hid-multitouch
```

## What happens

With the product ID patched to `D01D`, the daemon starts and finds the device correctly:

```
Haptic touchpad: hidraw=/dev/hidraw0 input=/dev/input/event8 intensity=40
```

The `HIDIOCSFEATURE` ioctl on `REPORT_ID=0x37` executes without error, but **no haptic feedback is felt**.

## Diagnosis

The HID descriptor of the D01D confirms that `REPORT_ID=0x37` exists (Haptics Usage Page 0x0E, Usage 0x23 — Waveform Vendor Page, 8-bit, range 0–100), identical in structure to D01A. However, the ioctl silently has no effect on D01D hardware.

This suggests the D01D firmware requires either:
- A **different REPORT_ID** to trigger the haptic actuator, or
- A **different report format** (e.g., more bytes, different structure)

Additional findings:
- Hyprland does **not** use `EVIOCGRAB` on the touchpad — root can read `event8` directly
- `ABS_MT_PRESSURE` and `ABS_PRESSURE` are exposed on `event8`
- The hardware button bit (byte[39] in Report 0x03) is **always 0** — physical clicks are not reflected as a HID button bit; they are detected by the kernel via pressure/ISH

## Workaround

None currently. The daemon runs but produces no haptic output on D01D.

## Suggested fix

The product ID list in `omarchy-haptic-touchpad` should include `D01D` once the correct report format for D01D is identified. The fix likely requires reverse-engineering the D01D firmware or testing alternative REPORT_IDs from the HID descriptor.

- `0x08` — Feature, Digitizer page
- `0x0D` — Feature, Digitizer page
- `0x50` — Feature, vendor page (FF00)
- `0x0F`, `0x0E`, `0x22` — Feature, vendor page
