[Bug 1234400] Re: Cannot log in users if their Xauthority file is corrupt.

2013-10-07 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
thanks.

Regarding lightdm itself, do you intend to also release a newer package
for the 1.6 "stable" branch as well ? The current bug is in fact a 1.6
regression there as well (and this is how I noticed it). It's a bit
counter-intuitive that the fix for a regression found in the "stable"
branch is to be found an a package upgrade picked from the "unstable"
branch... Unless you've just decided to EOL 1.6.

[Bug 1020770] Re: gdm install prompts about dm when debconf value set

2013-03-22 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Hi,

Pardon me if I'm misunderstanding, but it very much seems to me that the
gdm/lightdm configuration scripts are unconditionally setting the
default value of the debconf choice to gdm, irrespective of the previous
value of the setting.

Is that normal behaviour ?

In the transcript below I would have found more logical to see a GET
just after the two METAGET's.

Best,

@Kevin (#305)

> Are you seeing incorrect readings when using MT, or is your comment

initialization sequences altered the data format (ala Dolphin's 8-byte

Just inspecting the packets traveling through. Some MT reports, with one
of the finger close to the edges, were not working. This was most
visible when enabling 2-finger scrolling, since this would prevent
scrolling if one of the fingers happens to be in the dead zones. Looking
at the packets, it seems clear that there's one extra MT slot in each
direction (and 16 and 12 are nicer numbers than 15 and 11).

My code at https://github.com/emmanuelthome/psmouse-alps does work with
the V3 trackstick report code as-is (report by Malte Skoruppa who tested
it).

I think that the key is probably the weird thing which I called
alps_e6_sort_of_setmode there.

ok, I stand corrected then. I should have made my point clearer, though.
At some point it was thought that E6230/E6430 needed two entirely
different init sequences, and needed to be detected based on some yet-
to-be-determined magic going beyong E6/E7/EC reports. Not. It's only
that trying to talk to the missing trackstick on the E6230 freezes the
device, but that can be encompassed by a unified init.

Hell, if someone knew for sure, situation would be easier ;-) No, I'm
not sure.

What I observe is that based on the observation of E6230/E6430, bit 7 (0x80) of 
register c2c8 is used to choose between two code paths, one of which probably 
talks to the trackstick. The code structure here is almost in one-to-one 
mapping with the v3 code, and goes as follows:
 - check for presence of trackstick (bit 7 of register 0x8 on alps_v3, bit 7 of 
register 0xc2c8 on ``rushmore'').
 - if trackstrick:
   - enable trackstick passthrough mode by setting bit 0 of that same register
   - get an E7 report directly from the trackstick, although nothing is done 
with it.
   - send a magic command which sets something to the value 0x94. Might be your 
desired ``divisor''.
   - set bit 1 of register above (activate trackstick ???)
   - leave trackstick passthrough mode.

Yes. However, if the 0x94 thing above has any use, we'd better send it
only conditionally, and the windows driver seems to do so only if it
finds bit 0x80 in register 0xc2c8. Also, consistency with plain v3 code
sort of increases the slim confidence we may have.

The current alps_get_model logic seems hairy, too. Maybe it can be
streamlined a bit, but that's just aesthetics. We could probably fetch
the E6/E7/EC reports at once, and decide later. Do you have an idea of
how many models will match any of the rushmore/pinnacle/pinnacle_agx
rules ?


Anyway. Whatever people find best doing for a patch to mainline is fine with 
me. I think we all have more important things to work with than silly 
touchpads...

Best,

E.

[Bug 606238] Re: synaptic touchpad not recognized on dell latitude e6510 and others

2013-01-25 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Hi all,

In reply to #302:

> Where did you get the device names ("Dolphin", "Pinnacle", "Mercury",
etc.) and how did you figure out the protocols?

Seconded.

> Can people test Kevin's patch?

I tried it on my dell e6230, it works.

Kevin's patch do not properly take into account the fact that the e6230
has 16 and 12 bits for the MT slots, and not 15 and 11 (this is the
ALPS_BITMAP_X_BITS and ALPS_BITMAP_Y_BITS setting).

> If it works, then I'll layer the Dell I15R, I17R, 13z on top of it and
submit a patch to linux-input.

I'm a bit lost here. Has anybody kept track of the different models
encountered, and on which laptops ? I think that would help a lot (most
of the info is probably in here, but very poorly organized ; In
particular it's difficult to keep track of which laptop models, among
the ones listed, seemingly have different touchpad hardware).

Dave, what's your decision on your ACPI patch ? I haven't understood
what was the rationale behind using it, as it seemed to me that we had
enough material to drive our decision by talking to hardware directly.
If I understand correctly, you are about to forget this patch, is that
right ?

Merging all existing code (yours, mine, kevin's) is in fact easier than
the recollection of what happens where, and possibly requesting some
testing hardware (posters in this thread can be solicited).

Slightly different is the situation for the short v6 init sequence in
#280, which diverges from the usual pattern, to say the least. Not
having RESET_BAT and ENABLE in there makes the sequence functionally
different from what happens with other hardware.

In the ``seemingly different hardware category'', one could be mistaken
into listing the Dell E6230/E6430. These do have identical hardware,
except for the absence of the trackstick on the smaller E6230. My
reverse-engineering work and merge with bgamari's patches show this.
These are differentiated by querying the 0xc2c8 register, which is not
queried in Kevin's patch.

Briefly put, I think we should work making all this stuff cleaner.

You are well right posting a new bug. Bug 606238 was really too crowded.

As far as I am aware, no, there is nothing in the current ubuntu kernel
for having this issue fixed.

I hacked a dklm replacement, building on top of Dave Turvene's and Ben
Gamari's work. Code is here.

git://github.com/emmanuelthome/psmouse-alps.git

Real place for this fix is upstream, though. I haven't contacted
upstream yet, being busy at other things.

2012-12-06 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
In reply to #276-#277.

I was mistaken on this one. Apparently the driver does nothing regarding
enabling or disabling multitouch features on the trackpad. It's only a
matter of the software down the line which interprets the packet data.
Nothing, in fact, recognizes more than two finger in the alps driver.

Presently, as far as I am aware, the only multitouch sequences which are
interpreted are two-finger scrolling and two fingers for right click.
The former works. The latter maybe works, although I must admit that for
me, it is such an unusual gesture that I miss it most often. Could be
me, could be incomplete code as well.

In reply to #282:

Cool. Would you be so kind to send me the output of dmesg|grep psmouse
please ? Thanks.

Cool.

I suspected there was some clutter in there, but not to that point.

I am a bit surprised though that there is no ENABLE command in your
short init sequence. Looks quite odd.

I factored the e6x30 init sequences into a common sequence (tested,
works), and later ambitiously tested a merge of the v3 and v5 init
sequences (untested beyond my own hardware).

Code is there.

2012-12-04 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Sure. Not today, though.

All these features are configurable with the windows touchpad software.
Assuming they map to visible config orders sent to the device upon init,
I can reverse-engineer them and enable them from the driver.

I wonder, though, what is the usual choice done for touchpad hardware on
linux. Are we _always_ enabling all features, or is there a mechanism to
enable them just on demand ? I have seen no such thing in the sources
(haven't searched much either). This sort of touchpad includes features
which can be an annoyance for people not used to them, so the choice of
enabling everything is not necessarily the right one. E.g. my touchpad
seems to have pinch-to-zoom functionality (not even tried). I don't
exactly know to what this would map under linux, nor whether this stands
a chance of working in the first place, but I presume not everyone would
love this feature.

Best,

E.

[Bug 606238] Re: synaptic touchpad not recognized on dell latitude e6510 and others

2012-12-03 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Hi,

I succeeded in reproducing the reverse engineering steps for the Dell
E6230 touchpad.

Here is an updated version of Dave's dkms module which is **ONLY** for
the E6230. Starting from the init sequenced captured via qemu, I have
tried to make some sense out of the commands. It seems that this init
sequence is in fact quite different from that on the E6430 (which
reports 73 03 0a on E7 report as well). At some point I thought that
difference was related to the presence of a touchstick on 6430/6530 and
not on 6230, but it seems to be more than that.

Do not use this if you do not have the same hardware as me. I do not, at
the moment, know how to distinguish between the dell E6430 and dell
E6230 models.

Using the newly built psmouse module, I can use the rightmost area of
the pad to scroll, which is all I need. I don't know about other useful
features, probably I would need to enable them from my windows VM before
being able to see how they get initialized. This is something I can do,
if deemed useful.

It would be nice to tidy up this set of patches, in particular:
 (1) make the v5 and v6 init sequences more readable
 (2) differentiate between the various models (this applies to the models whose 
E7 report says 0x73 0x03 00x0a).

Doing (1) is easy, but a test host is needed. Doing (2) requires some
interaction with a user of such a platform. Volunteers ?

Best,

E.

Let X be a laptop running ubuntu 12.10. It's an x86-64 cpu for that
matter, but no one cares.

Assume an ssh server is running on X, and someone is logged in via ssh
from another machine Y to machine X.

Now if X is showing a lightdm login screen, there is no way the
``restart'' button (from the top-right menu) can work. It is simply
ignored. There is no message either.

If some user is logged on X, and he opens up the top-right menu and goes to 
``restart'', one of two things may happen.
  - If the remote session is under this very user, then the session is killed, 
and the computer restarts.
  - If the remote session is under another user (root, for the situation I 
tried), then the user's session is nuked, but the computer does not restart, 
and returns back to the lightdm login screen.

I find this quite irritating. Ssh sessions to my laptop may happen. When
I have physical access to it, I would like to be able to restart/shut
down the machine without having to either do a dirty shutdown (5s press)
or hunt manually for ssh session and kill -9 them, or ctrl-alt-f1, root
login, and reboot.

I would conceive it if someone considers it's ''dangerous'' to kill
incoming ssh sessions. Not that I share this opinion, but I imagine it
may exist. If so,  would it be possible, please, to have a dialog box
like ``yes, I mean it'' if the system decides it's perhaps unwise to
proceed to reboot ?

Best,

E.

[Bug 1027289] [NEW] openmpi1.5-doc no longer contains man pages

2012-07-20 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Public bug reported:

By comparing this:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/all/openmpi-doc/filelist

and that:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/all/openmpi1.5-doc/filelist

it is pretty obvious that the MPI_* man pages have been dropped from
openmpi1.5-doc

(same deal for precise, for that matter)

I see no mention of this in the README of the openmpi1.5-doc package,
nor in its Changelog (I have not spent long searchnig though).

Was this an intentional change, or an accident ? Having the MPI_* man
pages is something one does count on when installing the -doc package.

Best,

E.

[Bug 778796] Re: ‘info gcc’ broke. The package gcc-doc should be rebuilt with new debhelper to get trigger support

2012-01-17 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Just re-tested this one. It's still broken.

/usr/share/info/gcc.info.gz points to gcc-4.6.info.gz (don't know whether that 
was the case before), but that is of no use for providing correct `info gcc', 
because:
 (1) update-info-dir does not look at symlinks.
 (2) the info-dir section in gcc-4.6.info.gz is not meant to provide a match 
for (gcc) anyway.

Best,

E.

[Bug 778796] Re: ‘info gcc’ broke. The package gcc-doc should be rebuilt with new debhelper to get trigger support

2011-09-28 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
Quite annoying indeed. Still observed in oneiric beta2.

I never installed, nor cared or heard about gccgo, yet I'm served with
the gccgo info page in lieu of the gcc one.

I'll go for manual removing of /usr/share/info/gccgo.info.gz and redo
update-info-dir in the meantime.

Is the comment to be trusted in that a mere rebuild of the gcc-doc
pacakge would cure this ? If so, shall we expect a fix for the 11.10
final ?

Best,

E.

[Bug 754470] Re: syndaemon consumes 100% CPU

2011-04-17 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
It's not really a fix. Merely a paper wrap.

The bug seems to reside elsewhere, and might possibly affect other apps.
IMO it's important to do more work. I will not personally have time to
devote to this, however (despite the fact that I can reproduce the bug).

[Bug 754470] Re: syndaemon consumes 100% CPU

2011-04-14 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
There still seems to be something quite fishy going on with XRecord and
async events. I don't know much of it underneath, so my understanding
might be quite bad. Here are some random thoughts.

The problem is that there is an event queue which fills up and is never
drained by the application. Here, the culprit event has code 34, which
is X_UngrabKey. Despite the hint, this is not related to the screen
saver, since ``echo mem > /sys/power/state'' reaches the same situation.

Once this event is on top of the queue, it is _never_ processed by the
application. Probably because the XRecord context doesn't want it
(there's an event range passed to the async context constructor).

I don't know why this event shows up here. Here's a dump of the event
which reaches the end of handle_response in xcb_io.c (libX11), just
before _XEnq:

: 22 20 0b 00 01 08 f8 00 90 94 c6 a9 ff 7f 00 00
0010: f3 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 4d 44 50 00 00 00 00 00

This is never eaten by the application.

The xcb_io.c source file is in sync with the git HEAD.

No it's not, unfortunately. The current xcb_io.c matches the one in the
git repository, which has the relevant patch applied.

[Bug 754470] Re: syndaemon consumes 100% CPU

2011-04-14 Thread Emmanuel Thomé
This bug annoys me greatly.

Tried your package as well. It remains silent. No debug output at all.

I don't know which changes you tried, but I've tried putting some
printf() hooks within xrecord_callback(), e.g.:

cbres = (struct xrecord_callback_results *)closure;

int check = recorded_data->category != XRecordFromServer;

static int i=0;
printf("event %d [%d]!\n", i++, check);

if (recorded_data->category != XRecordFromServer) {

This code path, under normal operation, is supposed to be called. When
the process is spinning, it seems to not enter xrecord_callback() at
all. The events received are not key events, as is visible from this gdb
extract (I compiled the package with -g):

(gdb) fin

(gdb) 
420 cbres.non_modifier_event = 0;
(gdb) 
422 XRecordProcessReplies(dpy_data);
(gdb) 
424 if (!ignore_modifier_keys && cbres.key_event) {
(gdb) p cbres
$1 = {modifiers = 0x1418ae0, key_event = 0, non_modifier_event = 0, 
  pressed_modifiers = '\000' }
(gdb) n
428 if (cbres.non_modifier_event &&
(gdb) 
434 if (disable_event) {
(gdb) p disable_event 
$2 = 0
(gdb) p pad_disabled 
$3 = 0

I'll keep hunting a bit.
