Yesterday I updated my system and now it's recognizing my touchpad as a logitech wheel mouse, thing that, obviously, brokes all the touchpad-only features, making it unusable.

the first one is my actual mouse, and the second one is the touchpad.

Please post the pacman.log, and lsusb from terminal

I move it from Newbies to Xfce

Hi!
Sorry if I didn't reply before, but the internet connection in my area had a long "crash".
The problem solved by itself! I rebooted 4-5 times and it works now!
