padding: 0 4px;" rel="noreferrer">@davidedmundson</a> helps me with the dbus signals. I tried to implement them, but the problem was, that the processEvents() loop is in a different thread than the Connection instance. Because of that the signals weren't forwarded to D-Bus (hard to see).</p>
<p>He told me that he has an idea how to solve the problem. If this doesn't work though, I would suggest that we ignore the problem of the changing device list on plugging events. For my touchpad KCM it's in some way irrelevant anyway, because:</p>
<ol class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Most touchpads aren't removable.</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">On the rare occasion of a user plugging in or disconnecting a touchpad while being in the touchpad KCM, I would use the signal only to show a warning message to the user, that he should restart the KCM (I think it's over-engineered to implement logic to update the device list in real time in these very rare cases).</li>
