Thank you for the report; I am unsure of the exact SRPM.

Assigning globally, but CC'ing Joseph who used to nurse Cinnamon.

python3-gobject-3.52.3 update did not fix this.

Circling back to ask if someone can please take a look at this.  The mouse/touchpad function of cinnamon desktop is still broken.  Is there a workaround to change the settings be editing a textfile?  If so, what is the file name and location?

Touchpad/Mouse settings still not working in Cinnamon.  Hopefully, a patch will come soon.

Thanks!
