dregsboyi got an idea to make ubuntu more usable on a laptop07:47
dregsboyi guess no one's home07:49
defendguinwhats your idea?07:51
dregsboydisable clicking button 3 on the corners of the touch pad07:53
dregsboyi just fixed my pasting problem that made ubuntu very frustrating07:53
dregsboydon't know if i'm the only one to complain about that07:54
Nailor_As button 3 you mean middle button (actually button 2)07:56
Nailor_?07:56
Nailor_I like that feature :P07:56
=== Nailor_ is now known as Nailor
dregsboyevery time i type something my palm would evetualy tap on the upper right corner of the touchpad and whatever happends to be highlighted is pasted07:58
Nailor=P07:58
NailorWell, you can run syndameon07:58
Nailor*daemon07:58
dregsboyi did and it's fixed07:59
NailorWhich disables your touchpad while you write07:59
NailorThe only thing I'd like in the touchpad sector would be a nice graphical frontend for non-geek-users07:59
dregsboyi turned on palm detect and it cleared up the problem07:59
NailorAt the moment the lack of deasant graphical interface makes me for example to edit settings in configuration files08:00
dregsboyi agre08:00
dregsboyi agree08:00
NailorYeah.08:00
dregsboyqsynaptic is worthless08:00
NailorYup08:00
Nailorgsynaptic is even worse (not in repos, though)08:00
NailorA nice graphical interface to set the touchpad boundaries would be a nice thing08:01
dregsboyi totally agree, ubuntu is pretty easy to setup but linux still has alot it needs to fix08:02
dregsboysynaptic is frustrating if you don't have any experience working with linux on a laptop08:02
dregsboythe driver08:02
dregsboynot the package manager08:03
=== soho [n=user@91.65.197.176] has joined #ubuntu-laptop
NailorYup08:35
dregsboyA graphical frontend to synclient would make life alot easier for linux users08:43
dregsboythat shouldn't be very hard to make08:44
mjg59synclient is implemented via a mechanism that opens security holes08:46
mjg59I'm looking at reimplementing it properly08:46
dregsboywhile having the same ability to change the settings08:47
mjg59Yes08:47
mjg59But doing it properly involves making sure that the design is suitably generic08:47
mjg59So other touchpad drivers can use the same settings08:48
dregsboythat would be sweet08:48
dregsboyi think setting up the touchpad in linux needs to be easier08:48
mjg59I agree08:48
mjg59But right now there's no reasonable way to do it08:49
mjg59This code needs to be written first08:49
dregsboywell a basic understanding of programing08:49
dregsboybut i don't know enough working with hardware in linux08:49
dregsboyso there's little i can do08:50

MrNOKIAhello08:58
MrNOKIAcan i report here a small issue regarding Dell Inspiron 6400 laptops ?08:59
mjg59Sure08:59
MrNOKIAah, ot's you again :)08:59
MrNOKIAit*08:59
MrNOKIAso08:59
MrNOKIAit's a small issue08:59
MrNOKIAall the Fn keys seem to work as expected, except for Scroll Lock09:00
MrNOKIAthere's a special button for numlock09:01
MrNOKIAand the Fn + NumLock should be Scroll Lock09:01
MrNOKIAit doesn't work09:01
mjg59Hm.09:01
MrNOKIAand the small indicating LED doesn't turn on/off09:02
mjg59Nothing springs to mind - you might want to check launchpad.net to see if there's an existing bug09:02
mjg59But it's /probably/ an X issue09:02
MrNOKIAok09:03
MrNOKIAgoing to launchpad :)09:03
