Trackpad setup

With i3 my hands hardly leave the keyboard and almost never reach for the mouse.  As such, I generally use my touchpad.  My preference is to disable mouse tapping, use 'natural scrolling' and disable 'horizontal scrolling'.  Although you can set all these settings using Manjaro i3's bmenu (mod+ctrl+b, and choose 'Hardware and drivers' → 'Configure touchpad'), these settings will not survive a reboot.

On all my laptops, I've been able to control volume with the standard volume up/down/mute keys (e.g. fn+f1 etc.) by installing volumeicon with

Code Block
languagebash
sudo pacman -S volumeicon

Code Block
languagebash
exec --no-startup-id volumeicon

Save the changes and then run:

Code Block
languagebash
sudo update-grub

Set default applications
