[Bug 261318] Re: Xorg can't use Toshiba Laptop Support (tlsup) input device; input device does not support 'kbd' input handler
The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- Xorg can't use Toshiba Laptop Support (tlsup) input device; input device does not support 'kbd' input handler https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261318 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've upgraded that Toshiba laptop to the 2.6.27-1-generic kernel; previously it was using 2.6.26-5-generic. Upgrading to the newer kernel has not produced any change in behavior. This makes sense, since the version of the tlsup module itself has not changed. It's likely that this driver simply does not properly identifty itself as a 'keyboard' device. The 'tlsup' module currently DOES produce a regression compared to previous kernels with the toshiba_acpi support, though that module only worked once you fixed (worked around) the separate issue of acpi_fakekey brokenness -- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/217504 . If tlsup cannot be fixed in time, it would be a good idea to revert to using toshiba_acpi. I shall also attach an FDI file I tested, in an attempt to get Xorg to use the device; however, this did not work -- apparently the /proc/bus/input/devices output trumps the hal information. ** Attachment added: 10-tlsup.fdi http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17150835/10-tlsup.fdi -- Xorg can't use Toshiba Laptop Support (tlsup) input device; input device does not support 'kbd' input handler https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261318 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Marking as affecting HAL, Linux, and Xorg, since I'm not sure where the bug exactly lies, and the behavior involves all three. ** Also affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: hal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Xorg can't use Toshiba Laptop Support (tlsup) input device; input device does not support 'kbd' input handler https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261318 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
