Re: Re: X.Org Hits Testing: Xorg synaptics touchpad problem?
Hi there, after doing a smart upgrade using Synaptic (yes, I am talking about the package manager GUI here... ;-), I can't get *any* mouse-like device to work on my ThinkPad T42... I am using Debian unstable with X.org, and neither the nipple nor the synaptics touchpad are responding any more. As for the touchpad, The X.org log says (EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptic touchpad detected and no repeater device (EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware (EE) PreInit failed for input device Synaptics Touchpad Any idea what might be wrong? I'd be more than happy if at least one pointing device was functioning correctly. I actually prefer the touchpad, but the nipple would be better than nothing...

Very seamless and almost a non-event for such a major system upgrade. Agreed. I actually did a dist-upgrade from sarge to etch and actually got a lot of sid as well including 2.6.12 (I mistakenly brought in gcc-4.0 in order to keep festival from being removed). I did have to run aptitude dist-upgrade and apt-get install -f a few times until the smoke cleared. For some reason, /etc/init.d/cupsys was turned into some data file. An apt-get --reinstall cupsys fixed that. I haven't yet tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg since everything worked and looked fine after the upgrade (other than the missing custom Gnome menus that I mentioned in another email).
