The Macbook touchpad bug was probably
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/35574> which was resolved in the default
configuration by booting Linux with modprobe.blacklist=usbmouse.
Possibly it would help to add a set-xorg-configuration service to your
operating-system configuration file (/etc/config.scm or whatever you
have called it) and there select either not libinput or not synaptics:
(services (…
(set-xorg-configuration
(xorg-configuration
(keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)
(modules
(list
xf86-video-vesa
xf86-video-fbdev
xf86-video-amdgpu
xf86-video-ati
xf86-video-cirrus
xf86-video-intel
xf86-video-mach64
xf86-video-nouveau
xf86-video-nv
xf86-video-sis
xf86-input-libinput ;maybe remove this libinput line
xf86-input-evdev
xf86-input-keyboard
xf86-input-mouse
xf86-input-synaptics ;maybe remove this synaptics line
))))
…
Then do a guix system reconfigure.
