Since there's no good universal daemon for convertible laptops yet, and since I had to make the edits to AdmiralAkber's original code to get my own laptop working, I've posted them here to help others. This works for me - please let me know if you encounter any issues.
For the moment since I have nothing to add to it, the following is the original README.
Share & Enjoy, ffejery
A collection of scripts and systemd units to restore functionality of the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1.
These are different from other scripts in that the screen rotation is automated with use of the inbuilt accelerometer. Also, acpid is not used in order to toggle between tablet mode but rather binding to the inbuilt switches.
Tested on Arch Linux with MATE, KDE 4.14, Gnome 3.14+. See customization.
-
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
Assuming installed as per the PKGBUILD
Depending whether or not your DE rotates the Wacom orientation with the screen automatically edit the following file accordingly:
/opt/thinkpad-l380-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-l380-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.
- Test on different desktop environments (You can help!)
- xrandr
- xinput
- xbindkeys
- kbd (for setkeycodes)
- systemd
- gawk
- xsetwacom (optional for wacom rotation)
- onboard (optional for onscreen keyboard)
sudo -s
