When I touch the trackpad while running xfce4, the console and the dmesg fill up with
pms0: not in sync yet, discard input (state n) where n is mostly 0 or 3. And the result, rather than mouse cursor movement, I get pop-up menus and such in semi-random places. I haven't been able to make sense of what I've found on the web about this. (Saw something about a potential regression in 5.4 current, but I have no idea whether it's relevant, not sure which source the thread refers to, and then the thread trails off ...) dmesg follows. Relevant line seems to be pms0: Elantech Touchpad, version 3, firmware 0x354f00 Also, the output of synclient -l might be relevant? -------------------- $ synclient -l Parameter settings: LeftEdge = 89 RightEdge = 2155 TopEdge = 35 BottomEdge = 625 FingerLow = 1 FingerHigh = 1 MaxTapTime = 180 MaxTapMove = 102 MaxDoubleTapTime = 180 SingleTapTimeout = 180 ClickTime = 100 EmulateMidButtonTime = 75 EmulateTwoFingerMinZ = 282 EmulateTwoFingerMinW = 7 VertScrollDelta = 46 HorizScrollDelta = 46 VertEdgeScroll = 0 HorizEdgeScroll = 0 CornerCoasting = 0 VertTwoFingerScroll = 1 HorizTwoFingerScroll = 0 MinSpeed = 1 MaxSpeed = 1.75 AccelFactor = 0.0855066 TouchpadOff = 0 LockedDrags = 0 LockedDragTimeout = 5000 RTCornerButton = 0 RBCornerButton = 0 LTCornerButton = 0 LBCornerButton = 0 TapButton1 = 0 TapButton2 = 0 TapButton3 = 0 ClickFinger1 = 1 ClickFinger2 = 1 ClickFinger3 = 1 CircularScrolling = 0 CircScrollDelta = 0.1 CircScrollTrigger = 0 CircularPad = 0 PalmDetect = 0 PalmMinWidth = 10 PalmMinZ = 200 CoastingSpeed = 20 CoastingFriction = 50 PressureMotionMinZ = 30 PressureMotionMaxZ = 160 PressureMotionMinFactor = 1 PressureMotionMaxFactor = 1 GrabEventDevice = 0 TapAndDragGesture = 1 AreaLeftEdge = 0 AreaRightEdge = 0 AreaTopEdge = 0 AreaBottomEdge = 0 HorizHysteresis = 11 VertHysteresis = 11 ClickPad = 0 -------------------- But I have no idea what variables to monkey with. Well, I can completely turn the touchpad off with synclient TouchPadOff=1 ;-) Any suggestions appreciated. -- Joel Rees OpenBSD 5.7-stable (GENERIC.MP) #0: Thu May 28 06:12:04 JST 2015 r...@phool.my.domain:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP real mem = 1835790336 (1750MB) avail mem = 1783062528 (1700MB) mpath0 at root scsibus0 at mpath0: 256 targets mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.8 @ 0xe4800 (43 entries) bios0: vendor Insyde version "F.0A" date 07/16/2014 bios0: Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion 10 Notebook PC acpi0 at bios0: rev 2 acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP UEFI HPET APIC MCFG ASF!
