This contains systemd scripts to allow use of tablet mode, pen, auto rotation, and auto brightness on a Thinkpad X380 Yoga.

Status: Working!

• rotatation
• brightness adjustment
• turn off touchscreen when using pen
• tablet mode turns off touchpad, click buttons, and trackpoint (and turns on screen keyboard)
• sometimes the tablet mode acpi event's arn't reported after some time (or after suspend?). Workout: use a launcher on the panel

This repo is forked from https://github.com/ffejery/thinkpad-l380-yoga-scripts with edits for the x380. Differences are:

• we don't need to disable the keyboard as the buttons depress via hardware
• there seems to be no hotkey for tablet mode, so we need a workaround (I use acpi listen)
• there seems to be a bug where xinput can't enable the touchpad once it's disabled, so we need another workaround

For more tweaks for Xubuntu on a Thinkpad x380 yoga see this gist

• xrandr
• xinput
• systemd
• gawk
• xsetwacom (optional for wacom rotation)
• onboard (optional for onscreen keyboard)

• Screen rotation with accelerometer, including touchscreen, Wacom, and Touchpad/TrackPoint geometries

• Disabling of Touchscreen with proximity of Wacom digitizer

• Disabling of Clickpad and TrackPoint when moving to tablet mode

Depending whether or not your DE rotates the Wacom orientation with the screen automatically edit the following file accordingly:

/opt/thinkpad-x380-yoga-scripts/rotate/thinkpad-rotate.py

If you want to use an onscreen keyboard other than onboard, or disable opening of any keyboard when moving into tablet mode edit:

/opt/thinkpad-x380-yoga-scripts/tablet/mouse-toggle.sh

If your home directory is not in /home/ or your .Xauthority file is located somewhere other than your home directory you will need to edit the systemd modules. Likewise if your tablets display is not :0.
