Public bug reported:
TO REPRODUCE: 1. Open mouse and touchpad settings in System Settings 2. Put sensitivity and acceleration to max. 3. Doubleclick on the face RESULT: Trackpoint is as slow as it was before. This leads to me having to use more pressure on the trackpoint, which causes my fingers to hurt after a while. EXPECTED RESULT: Mouse pointer should move faster while using TrackPoint. My computer "Thinkpad Edge E325" is Ubuntu Certified, so I would expect this kind of feature to work. WORKAROUND: On the following page I found a script that allows to change sensitivity: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Talk:How_to_configure_the_TrackPoint A value of 165 (instead of 180) was perfect for me. The default is 128. #!/bin/sh T=`find /sys/devices/platform/i8042 -name name | xargs grep -Fl TrackPoint` SERIO_DIR="${T%/*/*/name}" sudo sh -c "echo -n 180 > $SERIO_DIR/speed" sudo sh -c "echo -n 180 > $SERIO_DIR/sensitivity" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-control-center 1:3.3.91-0ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-18.29-generic 3.2.9 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Mar 11 22:20:09 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Alpha amd64 (20120311) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_GB:en TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-control-center UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-03-11 (0 days ago) usr_lib_gnome-control-center: activity-log-manager-control-center 0.9.3-0ubuntu1 deja-dup 21.90-0ubuntu1 gnome-bluetooth 3.2.2-0ubuntu3 indicator-datetime 0.3.91-0ubuntu1 ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952524 Title: changing mouse sensitivity in system settings has no effect on trackpoint (lenovo e325) Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: TO REPRODUCE: 1.
