Bug#377447: appletouch trackpad is ignored (internal USB, 5 mo 14 iBook)

2007-08-07 Thread Brendon Higgins 
Hi there,

I'm still having this problem but I noticed something weird today. I haven't 
had a chance to look into it in much detail yet, and won't for at least 
another few days, but I thought it'd be worth mentioning now.

Occasionally when I put the machine to sleep, then open it up again, the 
trackpad loses all my settings, and goes back to the defaults: one-touch 
click (which I hate), etc. If I sleep the machine and open it again it 
usually remembers the settings again.

The strange thing I found today was that when it does lose the settings, *the 
trackpad properly registers with pbbuttonsd and is able to bring the machine 
out of the dark-screen state*. When I sleep the machine and open it up again, 
my trackpad settings come back, but pbbuttons stops responding to it again.

I haven't tried staying with defaults when X boots or anything else. Like I 
said, I haven't gotten a chance yet.

Hope this is useful,
Brendon

Yes, I do.


This driver has a known problem. It opens the event device for the
trackpad exclusively and block it for any other application. In this
case pbbuttonsd can't open the event device for the trackpad and
therefore won't get events from it.


I see. It makes me wonder what the reasoning for doing that is.


There is a patch for the synaptics driver out to solve this, but I
don't have it at hand. Please file a bugreport to Xorg and the package
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics too. Maybe they will fix the problem one
day and use a cooperative way to read trackpad events.


I will do that. Thanks for your help.

Peace,
Brendon

Hi Brendon,

You filed a bug report to debian and I would like to ask you some
further questions.

Do you use the XOrg with the synaptics trackpad driver?

2006-07-08 Thread Brendon Higgins 

Package: pbbuttonsd
Version: 0.7.5-2
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

This sounds a lot like problems people have had in the past with external
mouses. Moving the pointer with the internal trackpad does nothing to stop
pbbuttonsd darkening the screen and eventually sending the machine to sleep.
Typing prevents this as you would expect.

I've heard that iBooks only recently put the trackpad on USB, so I'm
thinking that might have something to do with it. I saw autorescan in
README.Debian so I went to enable that only to find that it was already
enabled. Not sure what else to try.

I'm happy to send ls* or logs or whatever might help. A couple are below.

Peace,
Brendon
