How can I add a config to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Not possible out of the box.

Create:

[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/xorg-launch -nolisten tcp vt01 $XORG_DEBUG -configdir /storage/.config/xorg.conf.d

Reboot and use /storage/.config/xorg.conf.d instead.

You have to create it.

OK, so I'm revisiting this some time later.... when you create /storage/.config/xorg.conf.d I assume you also need to copy what's in the read-only files system there too? Or is it read in addition to the existing directory?

-configdir is added to the other configurations. Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

Good deal... thanks. Trying to turn the touchpad click off, and there's a synaptics config file in the X11 dir that I think is what I need to modify...

So I'm trying to disable the touchpad by updating : /storage/.config/xorg.conf.d/70-libinput.conf

And setting the Tapping option to off thusly:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
    MatchIsTouchpad "on"        
    MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"        
    Driver "libinput"        
    Option "Tapping" "off"
EndSection

This doesn't seem to do the trick (have rebooted as well obviously).

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

You either need to implement support for /storage/.config/xorg.conf.d/ mapping to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d .. or (easier) patch the files that we get from xf86-input-libinput package with a custom image or (easiest) overwrite them with a file in projects/Generic/filesystem/use/share/X11/xorg.conf.d with whatever you like. All of the above require a custom image.

As said check /var/log/Xorg.0.log. E.g. if the configuration is accepted and how the touchpad is configured

It appears that the touchpad is configured as a MS Nano Transciever Mouse:

KODI-FR:/var/log # cat Xorg.0.log | grep mouse

Any ideas on disabling touchpad click , or is the suggestion chewitt made of custom image the only real option?
