I found it.  It's here, right in the first post:
https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...t=firmware

Killing the NumLock that way was a very, very poor choice.  On the plus side, at least it was somewhat documented.

Creating fancy, custom keyboard layouts and maps becomes bad only when such layouts are showed down everybody's throat.  Those fancy layouts can and surely will exist, but they should exist as an option, not as the only choice that's available.

If there's a dead spot on the touchpad, disabling the taps should make the double-tap issue go away.

Yuck, mouse gestures are downright scary to me.  Who knows how the algorithm is going to recognize the gesture?  It's like some kind of Russian roulette.
