Daniel Hahler, thank you for your comments. Regarding them: "This does not bug me enough to create a bootable stick, to test it on the host."
Ok. If you get bugged enough, this could always be resumed with your testing results. "Especially given, that I think that it is the expected behavior - given the link to the documentation in the report." What one would expect is up to you, given you filed the report. "You have added the regression-potential tag, but I would say that it never worked properly." What was the earliest release tested on your host? "Does it work on your system/touchpad?" Yes, but I don't have your hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251369 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad X220 Tablet] "Disable while typing" does not disable touchpad completely (only scrolling) Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The "Disable while typing" option in the Mouse and Touchpad settings only work for scrolling, but not the regular movement of the pointer. To reproduce: 1. enable the option 2. Open a window where you can type (editor, terminal) 3. type with one hand constantly, and move the mouse pointer with the other one The mouse pointer should not move, but does for me. When two-finger scrolling instead, this gets blocked successfully while typing. This is with Ubuntu 13.10 on a Lenovo X220t. (The touchscreen appears to be completely unaffected by this setting (you can scroll while typing), but that is OK.) According to the documentation (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad#Disabling_Touchpad_while_Typing) I have now also disabled "Tap to click", which works around the main annoyance of this: accidentally clicking with the palm/part of your hand while typing - the pointer can still be moved. --- .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,decor,resize,compiztoolbox,put,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,regex,place,session,move,grid,animation,imgpng,wall,expo,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,ezoom,staticswitcher,fade,scale,unityshell] CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true DistUpgraded: 2013-10-08 21:37:21,390 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: saucy DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0126] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:21db] InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-05-28 (567 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) MachineType: LENOVO 42992PG MarkForUpload: True Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu6 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.11.0-14-generic root=/dev/mapper/vg0-rootlv ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-14.21-generic 3.11.7 Tags: saucy ubuntu compiz-0.9 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-14-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-10-08 (70 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom davfs2 dip docker fuse lastfm libvirtd lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo www-data dmi.bios.date: 04/11/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 8DET68WW (1.38 ) dmi.board.asset.tag: Not Available dmi.board.name: 42992PG dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Available dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Not Available dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr8DET68WW(1.38):bd04/11/2013:svnLENOVO:pn42992PG:pvrThinkPadX220Tablet:rvnLENOVO:rn42992PG:rvrNotAvailable:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNotAvailable: dmi.product.name: 42992PG dmi.product.version: ThinkPad X220 Tablet dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.10+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs 1:0.5 version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.46-1ubuntu1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 9.2.1-1ubuntu3 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 9.2.1-1ubuntu3 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.14.3-3ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.7.3-0ubuntu3.1 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.2.0-0ubuntu10 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.904-0ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.9-2ubuntu1 xserver.bootTime: Mon Dec 16 17:08:49 2013 xserver.configfile: default xserver.logfile: /var/log/Xorg.0.log xserver.outputs: product id 728 vendor LGD xserver.version: 2:1.14.3-3ubuntu2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1251369/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
