Hi to all, I have installed some applications to optimize the mouse use, one of them wayV. Before installation I type wayv in my console and they shows me: $ wayV version 0.3
and freeze there, no responds to any mouse or keyboard command... in others words.. not works... Looking the code I only con see the program stops in line: XNextEvent(video->display, &event); But not recover any event... I have seen similar behavior in the programs GOK and Dasher. The first one not respond when I click on buttons, and Dasher cant write in other windows... My configuration: Ubuntu 6.10 64bits, Generic Mouse. On AMD64. Here is a mail exchange whit Mike Bennett, wayV author: They will be looking at the problem around Christmas. If you can give us any help would be great. Thanks!

Using a managed window the program have the same behavior... Starting them as root too... Using Compiz Fusion wayV shows that error: wayV version 0.3 X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) Major opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GrabButton) Serial number of failed request: 17 Current serial number in output stream: 20 You can see some Bugs Reports on this 'little' link whit more information: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayv/+bugs?search=Search&field.status=New&field.status=Incomplete&field.status=Confirmed&field.status=Triaged&field.status=In+Progress&field.status=Fix+Committed&field.status=Fix+Released&field.status=Invalid&field.status=Won%27t+Fix&field.omit_dupes.used= Maybe something on ubuntu has change and the code need a little adjust... Strange.. because the .deb package is in the repositories.. I will trying mail to the mantainer group: [email protected] Thank a lot! Gabriel.

This could be because of a change in X windows security model or another application, such as a window manager, has grabbed an event resource that wayV wants. IIRC the XTest extension may be required for some event grabs BUT its been a long while since I looked at that part of the code. Could you send me a copy of you wayv.conf file? Also what window manager you are using? > You can see some Bugs Reports on this 'little' link whit more > information: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayv/+bugs? > search=Search&field.status=New&field.status=Incomplete&field.status=Co > nfirmed&field.status=Triaged&field.status=In > +Progress&field.status=Fix+Committed&field.status=Fix > +Released&field.status=Invalid&field.status=Won%27t > +Fix&field.omit_dupes.used= Thats a good link for helping me understand the problem. Since its always occurring in Drapper I should be able to reproduce the problem. I'm really busy till the 21st of this month writing a conference paper but after that I'll setup Drapper and see if I can reproduce and fix the problem. I'll let you know how that goes. In the meantime if you have any more luck tracing it down please let me know. > I will trying mail to the mantainer group: [email protected] If you do please let them know I will be looking at the problem around Christmas, and let me know if they have any insights.
