I don't know if im using libinput or synaptics cause i use both at the same time. **Xorg synaptic config**
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-synaptics.conf 
# Example xorg.conf.d snippet that assigns the touchpad driver
# to all touchpads. See xorg.conf.d(5) for more information on
# InputClass.
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE, your distribution will likely overwrite
# it when updating. Copy (and rename) this file into
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d first.
# Additional options may be added in the form of
#   Option "OptionName" "value"
#

**Altough i set the scroll speed with this script**:
#!bin/bash
# MOUSE SCRIPT
# xinput, permanent, run at startup
# touchpad scroll speed config

# >> TOUCHPAD
# Scroll speed
xinput set-prop "Synaptics TM3276-022" "Synaptics Scrolling Distance" 300, 100

# >> TRACKPOINT
# Scroll speed
xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "libinput Scrolling Pixel Distance" 50
**And i set the trackpoint speed with this script**
#!bin/bash
# Trackpoint speed controll config
xinput --set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "libinput Accel Profile Enab
led" 1, 0

xinput --set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "libinput Accel Speed" 0.40
**Any idea which config to use or which is the config the system uses?**
