Patch is not mine... 
I just applied the patch to the packages and uploaded them for others to use!
Credit for the patch is not mine!

Thanks and kudos to the author of the patch, and the helpful guy who posted the 
clear instructions!

On my hardware (specs n info on a previous post) I have no trouble at all so 
far with touchpad while using the patch. All is gravy...

ok, so this patch is definitely working this end.. no troubles at all now :)
Just in case anyone else wants to try it but would rather avoid the 
patching/compiling bit, I have uploaded the two needed packages to my 4shared 
account.

2014-11-18 Thread laurence dawney
well... 
I may not be a developer/programmer but I am a competent pc/laptop technician. 
So perhaps you should ask yourself:
If these instructions are too vague for me (and others here) to follow, then 
are they sufficient??
With all due respect of course.

We were just asking for help. Was it really that much to ask?? Just a few lines 
of text?
Thanks for all you have done tho. I am sure we can all be productive and happy 
while our laptops/pc's freeze up while we are using them, or while using low 
performing and buggy drivers.

2014-11-18 Thread laurence dawney
Michael steenbeek, I will have in a few days, I have one coming in the
post for the very purpose.

And just so you know, I am a recent migrator to linux, and I was one of those 
that just dived in...
I am still learning my way round it, and how to do more advaanaced tasks. And 
it is bugs and problems exactly like this one that I welcome for that reason, 
because doing it is exactly how I learn to do more.
And I dont much care if I nuke my system, I have it partition seperately to 
save all my data and setting etc so I can just re-install the parts I need to 
and BOOM computer back!

Waiting for an automatic update when I could be (a) getting it done sooner, and 
(b) learning something in the process
just seems silly.
So maybe you have a right to judge what people should or should not do with 
their own machines if they want to, or maybe not.
Or maybe you just dont like sharing?

My apologies. I just don't people looking down their nose at me, or get on with 
being told what I can/can't/should/shouldn't do with my own property.
That was the greater part of why I migrated to linux.. I preferred the open 
source philosophy.

Packages in question are:
ocl-icd-libopencl1
ocl-icd-libopencl1:i386

Removing those two and installing nvidia-libopencl1-331 makes my system
work, but no WINE sux!

[Bug 1220426] Re: [nvidia-prime]Freeze while using touchpad

2014-11-13 Thread laurence dawney
Hi all
Having the same (I think) issue with my dell inspiron 15 7537 running mint 17 
KDE x64
In my case though it only started happening when I installed WINE. Without WINE 
the system works fine with every nvidia driver i have tested. It seems to be 
the open source opencl packages. If I have the nvidia packages installed issue 
does not happen but with open source opencl packages freeze comes back...
Basically I have to choose between nvidia drivers or WINE (since wine wont 
install without open source opencl and wont let me switch to nvidia ones)
I have not tried using mouse instead of trackpad as I dont have a mouse to try 
lol so dont know if system will run fine or not with trackpad disabled.
Hope this helps!

2014-06-26 Thread laurence dawney
Hi :)
Just to update,
I have now upgraded to Mint 17, and all files are now playing fine for me. 
Seems it could just affect Mint 16?
@ Myriam, I am using the standard pre-installed version of amarok that comes 
with Mint in both cases.

Already switched to VLC backend... was one of the first things I did when I

I am just now installing Mint 17 so will report back if it is fixed in the new
