[Bug 632293] Re: ubuntu certified hardware misleading, and key contributor to lack of progress on bug #1
@bitinerant,i was able to return mine for a full refund. i advise you to do the same. my theory is that due to the architecture of the vostro v13 and latitude 13, it will be a ***very*** long time, if ever that any linux distro will support it. the synaptics touchpad is a child of a broadcom usb hub (part of bluetooth as far as i can tell) and broadcom is notoriously closed-source. too bad, as the vostro v13 is a very nice machine, but designed specifically according to the wintel paradigm. i've lost all faith in dell as a result of their overt lack of interest in supporting ubuntu and their horrible technical support. canonical is also fooling themselves with their sham of a certified hardware testing and certification program, and quite simply ignoring their own prime directive, bug #1. best of luck, cheers -- ubuntu certified hardware misleading, and key contributor to lack of progress on bug #1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632293 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 648551] [NEW] unable to disable scroll events in pager and taskbar widgets
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace the KDE SC4 plasma widgets pager and tasks (taskbar) have no configuration capability to disable touchpad/mouse scroll events. see upstream bug report for tasks at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198661 submitted here for visibility and possibly to help get some traction on this. comments from upstream bug below. folks, how many votes does it take to get some traction on this? i'll submit the following use case... judy has carpal tunnel syndrome. she uses her laptop to earn a living as well as for pleasure. her laptop dies and she gets a new one with a ***HUGE*** touchpad that has no discernible borders and is very sensitive as well. she loves kubuntu lucid, and is even trying out maverick hoping for better control of the touchpad settings, yet finds the touchpad configuration capabilities lacking. after resorting to asking a friend to help her in writing a shell script to set the touchpad parameters to the best she can including syndaemon to disable the touchpad while typing, she still finds it quite difficult and extremely painful to type while trying to keep her palms and thumbs off the touchpad and still gets undesired movement and scroll events. she adores the ability to disable the touchpad scroll from switching desktops by using the mouse actions in the plasma workspace/desktop settings. she finds it quite hard to accept that the same configuration capabilities cannot be easily added to the pager and tasks widgets which still give her considerable annoyance, pain and irritation as well as lost productivity resulting in some less than pleasant chats with her boss. can someone help judy solve these issues? she claims she'll do herself in before going back to windoze ;) thanks, cheers ** Affects: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: accessibility amd64 i386 kde-base-workspace lucid maverick pager tasks -- unable to disable scroll events in pager and taskbar widgets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/648551 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 632293] [NEW] ubuntu certified hardware misleading, and key contributor to lack of progress on bug #1
*** This bug is a security vulnerability *** Public security bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics a few related bugs: 1, 611992, 556019, 483121, 380126, 191024, many, many more, unassigned, undecided, unassigned... synopsis: bug #1 has much to do with hardware oem's working with ms to design products to work with their 0$ and provide drivers. to make some progress on bug #1 it is critical that a ***trusted*** hardware certification program exist that can assist partners, resellers, isvs, systems integrators, support organizations and consumers in selecting hardware that just works with ubuntu, ***especially when the oem ships the system with ubuntu installed***. case in point: dell ships vostro v13 with ubuntu 9.04 installed. cannonical lists vostro v13 as certified on 10.04 with only a note that proprietary drivers are required for wifi. cool, i buy one... reality: there is no ubuntu support (hardy through maverick) whether supplied by dell or canonical, for the synaptics touchpad in the v13. haven't found any other linux 2.6 distro that supports it either, not even the 2.6.36 git tree. works fine with dell supplied xp driver. looking through the bug reports, it seems that most of the newer gesturing touchpads on many notebooks from various manufacturers and oems also are suffering similar issues. potential security implications: since the touchpad cannot be configured and disabled while typing (except via Fn-F6 on the v13), heaven only knows what configuration changes you're making on your system, or the remote server or device you're configuring, or how many items you just **really** bought on that website, or what other information you've inadvertently cut-and-pasted into whatever form/site/config file. it's virtually impossible to use the keyboard without touching the huge touchpad on this machine. notice that synaptics does indeed provide support for linux to oems: see http://www.synaptics.com/about/press/press-releases/synaptics-gesture- suite%E2%84%A2-now-available-popular-linux-operating-systems one would think that the ability to configure a touchpad as a touchpad, not just a generic ps/2 mouse would be a critical accessibility check in a certification program. this certification is quite misleading, and reflects poorly on dell, canonical and synaptics. what will it take to be able to ***trust*** ubuntu's hardware certification? imho. canonical needs to take ownership and: 1. the vostro v13 should be removed from the certified status until it really works. 2. ensure touchpad recognition by kernel, all relevant drivers and configuration capability is present by default to achieve certified status 3. ensure oem's work with component device manufacturers and canonical engineering and quality control to supply requisite patches with their own distributions of ubuntu at the very least, better to work upstream where appropriate. 4. provide a facility to rate and or refute the certifications published at http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/ cheers, p.s. in my case, i've exhausted all support options and am returning the machine to dell for a refund. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Visibility changed to: Public -- ubuntu certified hardware misleading, and key contributor to lack of progress on bug #1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632293 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
