I ran the updater from the updater app in the Manjaro (XFCE) GUI.

I can't tell immediately whether or not the touchpad is working better. So I'm wondering if I did it right.

Did that simply install a program that I now have to run? If so, how do I do it?

There was no feedback beyond letting me know that the install was complete. I wasn't prompted to reboot.

Sorry for the newbie questions, I'm brand new to Arch-based systems, and don't know the CLI well enough to know how to determine what a device's firmware version is, when it was updated, etc. But, maybe it's useful that to someone like me, the process is rather opaque.
