Re: Synaptics touchpad freezes

2007-02-02 Thread Gábor Gábris

The SHMConfig option seems to have no effect on the problem. It is
rather some ACPI-related thing, as I could figure out from the Linux
ACPI mailing list archives (on linux the same problem occurs, but more
severely - no recovery from freezes), the problem seems to be with the
access of embeddedcontroller, that makes the batter checking. But it
is a bi technical for me...

I am running FreeBSD 6.2 on a ThinkPad R52 with a synaptics touchpad.

My system does not have that sysctl variable:
sysctl: unknown oid 'hw.psm.synaptics_support'

 During the daily use of X (browsing, etc.) the mouse cursor freezes at
 ranom times for intervals of about 3-5 seconds, than it gets back to
 work. But the freezes are likely to occur serially, with some seconds
 between them.

 During this the following messages show up in dmesg:

 can't re-use a leaf (directional_scrolls)!
 can't re-use a leaf (low_speed_threshold)!
 can't re-use a leaf (min_movement)!
 can't re-use a leaf (squelch_level)!

These messages occur on my R52 only after awaking from suspend to ram
(zzz). The touchpad works regardless provided the sleep is requested
from within X11.

 If anyobody has the same problem or know what causes it or (even
 better) knows how to solve it please let me know!

Does changing the SHMConfig option (xorg.conf) make any difference?

I have:
Section InputDevice
...
Option SHMConfig on
...
EndSection

Synaptics touchpad freezes

2007-01-31 Thread Gábor Gábris

Hi!

I have a problem with my synaptics touchpad under FreeBSD 6.2 on an
Albacomp Eco Traveller V4 laptop (AFAIK a rebranded Clevo M660S). I
have 'hw.psm.synaptics_support=1' in my /boot/loader.conf an the
synaptics driver for X from Ports.
During the daily use of X (browsing, etc.) the mouse cursor freezes at
ranom times for intervals of about 3-5 seconds, than it gets back to
work. But the freezes are likely to occur serially, with some seconds
between them.

During this the following messages show up in dmesg:

can't re-use a leaf (directional_scrolls)!
can't re-use a leaf (low_speed_threshold)!
can't re-use a leaf (min_movement)!
can't re-use a leaf (squelch_level)!

I attach a dmesg before the problem and after the freezes occur.

If anyobody has the same problem or know what causes it or (even
better) knows how to solve it please let me know!

Thanks

Gábris Gábor
