PROFILE

Stephanie Wilde-hobbs

Worked on enhancing hardware compatibility and palm-rejection reliability for the yuwata/systemd repository, focusing on the Magic Trackpad v2 USB-C (2024). Delivered a palm-rejection feature by introducing an external-device quirk through hwdb rules, which reduced false palm rejection triggers and stabilized input behavior. The approach involved hardware-level testing with local hwdb rules and careful commit management to ensure robust integration. Utilized C for device driver development and applied Linux kernel development skills to expand hardware support. The work improved user experience by reducing accidental inputs and contributed to broader hardware compatibility goals within the systemd project’s input device handling.
