It appears that 71652fe ("Ignore motion the first X ms after a
clickpad click") is not enough to prevent unwanted cursor jumps when
two different fingers are used to respectively move the cursor and
click. The jumps are due to the small delay between the actual click and
the moment the finger is placed on the clickpad. Because of this delay,
the two events are sometimes seen as independent from each other and
since the finger detection happens first, the motion is not ignored.Add a constraint on the distance covered to prevent jumps. The difference between two detections along the x axis has to be smaller than 1/4 of the clickpad width and smaller than 1/4 of the height along the y axis. Signed-off-by: Gabriele Mazzotta <[email protected]> --- This patch was tested on a Dell XPS13 9333. I don't know if 1/4 of the width and 1/4 of the height are good constraints, on my laptop I couldn't notice any side effect even with stricter constraints. src/synaptics.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/synaptics.c b/src/synaptics.c index 32edce5..b9da62c 100644 --- a/src/synaptics.c +++ b/src/synaptics.c @@ -3233,6 +3233,9 @@ HandleState(InputInfoPtr pInfo, struct SynapticsHwState *hw, CARD32 now, buttons |= tap_mask; } + if (para->clickpad && abs(dx) > priv->maxx/4 && abs(dy) > priv->maxy/4) + ignore_motion = TRUE; + /* Post events */ if (finger >= FS_TOUCHED && (dx || dy) && !ignore_motion) xf86PostMotionEvent(pInfo->dev, 0, 0, 2, dx, dy); -- 2.0.0 _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
