Package: xserver-xorg-input-all Version: 1:7.3+18 Severity: important Hi, flagging this as important because it's an RSI issue for anyone using X for any duration.
After upgrading from Etch to Lenny, I found 2 input problems. 1. My mouse pointer is very, very slow. I use GNOME and tried modifying the preferences in System / Preferences / Mouse but they seemed to have no effect. After some digging, I found running xset m 2 2 restores the behaviour to what I think it was (fluid mouse movement rather than the treacly behaviour I had). Can this be the default behaviour? Is there a reason the GNOME settings don't apply? 2. On a related note, I noticed that the keyboard wasn't repeating, particularly the arrow keys (I didn't realise how much I rely on this behaviour until it was gone). Again, I tried modifying the GNOME settings but this seemed to give excessive repeating behaviour. After some digging, I found the following did just what I needed xset r Again, can this be the default? -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-all depends on: ii xserver-xorg-input- 1:2.0.8-1 X.Org X server -- evdev input driv ii xserver-xorg-input- 1:1.3.1-1 X.Org X server -- keyboard input d ii xserver-xorg-input- 1:1.3.0-1 X.Org X server -- mouse input driv ii xserver-xorg-input- 0.14.7~git20070706-3 Synaptics TouchPad driver for X.Or ii xserver-xorg-input- 0.7.9.3-2 X.Org X server -- Wacom input driv xserver-xorg-input-all recommends no packages. xserver-xorg-input-all suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
