asus-touchpad-numpad-driver VS howdy

Here is the links to the Linux driver (same driver in both links): https://github.com/iamkroot/asus-numpad https://github.com/mohamed-badaoui/asus-touchpad-numpad-driver

I recently found https://github.com/mohamed-badaoui/asus-touchpad-numpad-driver to switch between touchpad and numpad, but I didn't like the idea of running a python script as root so I rewrote it in C++.

Touchpad numberpad, though there is this driver which I have not tried: https://github.com/mohamed-badaoui/asus-touchpad-numpad-driver

I would add one more thing into your list above. To be able to use numerical pad on the touchepad you have to install a driver from here: https://github.com/mohamed-badaoui/asus-touchpad-numpad-driver

you can even use facial recognition with IR webcam

I just bought a go 2 (not laptop go) this weekend and installed fedora 37 on it. Almost everything worked without the surface kernel except the camera requires v4l2loopback kernel drivers to create a gstreamer device for apps that don’t support libcamera. There were only old versions available in copr but no surface kernel headers available so I couldn’t build the kernel modules. I switched to ubuntu 22.10 and got similar hardware support but more available packages. I’m still trying to figure out how to get the IR sensors to work so I can use howdy for login/sudo. https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy

First, you'll need to install Howdy.

I've tried using Howdy, but that doesn't seem to work. It's probably because of this issue

Just like with digicams, it is not just about the sensor, but also the image processing itself. Should we omit the IR sensor to replace it with a better firmware-based noise-reduction system? But what about "Howdy" / "Hello" users, if we go this route?
