Package: consolation
Version: 0.0.1-1
Severity: important
Hi Bill,
Intrigued by Consolation as a possible GPM replacement, so I figured
I'd remove that and give it a shot. Upon installing it, I find that
the mouse cursor will extend to the full console height, but not the
full console width. It stops in column 64--a default maybe?
I have no idea what might be relevant here, so I'll give as much info
as I can on my console video setup.
I am using an Intel Atom D410 nettop here which works in Linux with
the i915 driver. You know, "works" for some version of the word
which may be defined as "slightly more effective at displaying video
than many doorstops".
The following line from my /etc/default/grub file may be relevant:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="video=VGA-1:1280x1024 video=LDVS-1:d quiet splash"
This line is possibly relevant because the content and order of these
arguments is significant. The "primary" display of this chipset is
LDVS-1, which does not even exist because this is a netbook machine.
Nonetheless Linux fixes this at 1024x768. It then sets VGA-1 to
mirror this limited resolution. It seems necessary to define VGA-1's
resolution first, then to disable LDVS-1 in order to make the VGA
display the primary one and then disable the useless dummy display.
I thought the issue might be that not all of my consoles share the
same font due to an interaction between console-setup and Plymouth
that causes tty1 not to have the appropriate font set until I do so
by hand, however restarting it after all windows used the same font
didn't resolve the issue.
BTW, copying a line works regardless of length, and the same for a
word that begins on or before column 64.
Happy to help debug this if you've got some stuff you'd like me to
try/log/trace. I'm using a basic mouse here and GPM works fine, but
GPM hasn't really kept pace with modern input devices since 1997. My
other mouse is an Apple Magic Trackpad, etc. ;)
Incidentally, I've removed gpm for testing consolation and will for
the time being remove consolation to restore gpm functionality. The
package indicates no need to do this, but it seems like a good idea.
If that's unnecessary, please let me know. Else I would suggest a
change to the manpage and control file.
