Re: problems with mouse

2016-08-30 Thread Antonio Olivares 
Dear folks,

I am not sure if hald_enable="YES" is still needed, but I will add it
to see if the mouse problem goes away, because mouse works, but when I
switch apps, ie. firefox to xterm, then I cannot switch back to
firefox till I finish with xterm :(.  If it works well and fixes the
problem, I will let you all know and hopefully it does fix the issue.

Best Regards,


Antonio

Bruce Evans has fixed some issues with SC/VT mouse/keyboard stuff in 
12-current. Maybe he has some ideas.


I only know about sc/atkbd and am trying not to break ukbd.

The cause of Bug 211884 (ukbd?) is still unknown.  Bugzilla is too hard
to access for me, but the PR seems to be missing critical info about the
environment (is the console vt or sc?).

kbdmux is still missing the fix that is blamed for causing Bug 211884.
I need to fix kbdmux before changing sc to depend on it being fixed.
vt already depends on it being fixed.  Howver, vt also depends on
going through kbdmux.  ukbd doesn't attach properly directly for vt.

ukbd passed tests of working in panic mode yesterday.  It actually
works perfectly in panic + ddb (polled) mode.  Much better than in
just ddb mode.  Panic mode turns off its locking and thus gives
races instead of deadlocks and assertion failures, and the races
aren't very harmful in panic mode.  So the basic polling method in
ukbd is working except when it tries to do correct locking.

Re: problems with mouse

2016-08-29 Thread Antonio Olivares 
I do not know what could be the problem, but if I restart the machine,
I get the functionality back.  I use the scroll ability and learned to
cut and paste using xterm only.  It is then when I lose the
functionality.

I right click and or left-click and I cannot switch from browser to
xterm.  I have to shutdown browser open xterm and then close it.

I want to copy from a terminal and paste, and when I switch to firefox
from the terminal I cannot see mouse pointer.  I then have to use alt*
keys to logout because mouse gets lost.  Do I send a script with
output from grepping mouse?

Thanks,


Antonio

Hi,

Bruce Evans has fixed some issues with SC/VT mouse/keyboard stuff in 
12-current. Maybe he has some ideas.


Maybe you could try to compile an 12-current kernel and boot instead of 
11-stable.


I doubt it is related to umsX. Check dmesg in such case and see if there 
are attach/detach messages for your USB mouse, which would indicated a 
problem.
