[00:00] <acron17> e.g. synclient -h gives me "Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?"

[00:21] <DanaG> EmulateWheel is set to true, and to middle button... and yet, middle button does not make it scroll.
[00:23] <DanaG> Oh, and ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't work.  Lovely.
[00:23] <DanaG> er... wait, I was hitting backSLASH.
[00:25] <DanaG> I should  never, ever be able to see this in XEV:

[00:26] <DanaG> What I was going to say:
[00:26] <DanaG> XEV should never see the terminate_server key.
[00:29] <crimsun> ah
[00:29] <crimsun> well, debugging those bits can be like alice down the rabbit hole
[00:30] <crimsun> first, an embarrassingly high number of symptoms can be worked around simply by rebooting
[00:30] <crimsun> second, if you have resumed, be aware that linux+hal quirks often are ignored (!)
[00:30] <DanaG> Even if I restart the hal daemon?
[00:31] <DanaG> And unload and reload psmouse, too.
[00:31] <crimsun> yes, that's how i discovered that the synaptics driver does the wrong thing post-resume _or_ post-hal-restart
[00:31] <DanaG> ah.
[00:32] <DanaG> Also, my "TouchStyk" (as Synaptics calls it) shows up as PS/2 Generic Mouse, so I can't do anything with it.
[00:32] <DanaG> I wish it would fall under the Synaptics device, instead.
[00:32] <crimsun> yes, i just went through that whole debugging shebang last week
[00:32] <DanaG> ah.
[00:32] <crimsun> try rebooting and seeing if that resolves the issue _or_ suspend-to-disk then resuming (after a fresh reboot, of course)
[00:32] <DanaG> If I reboot, will the disabling middle emulation and enabling emulate-wheel work?
[00:33] <crimsun> probably, i don't know your specific linux (:hw) quirks
[00:34] <crimsun> i'm slowly working through a bunch of acpi (linux, mostly) and suspend-to-ram bugs
[00:34] <DanaG> Off to try rebooting.  Oh yeah, and radeon_drv has missing symbols, so I'm using radeonhd.
[00:43] <DanaG> Odd... for some reason, I'm seeing lots of traffic between PulseAudio and my router.
[00:46] <DanaG> Another oddity: the buttons on the pointstick are attached logically to the touchpad device, not to the pointstick device.
=== idleone_ is now known as IdleOne
[00:54] <DanaG> I can't figure out why PulseAudio is flooding my network despite me not playing any audio.
[00:55] <DanaG> .. or why netstat shows the traffic as going to my router itself, and not to the other computer.
[01:18] <DanaG> Okay, that's even weirder: by loading psmouse with proto=exps, I got the two devices to combine into one... which actually reported itself as PS/2 Synaptics Touchpad.......
[01:18] <DanaG> ...... and yet, HAL did not assign the 'touchpad' capability to it.
[01:20] <DanaG> ... and the Xorg synaptics driver says: (EE) PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device
[01:20] <DanaG> ... even though cat /proc/bus/input/devices SHOWS the touchpad name!
[01:24] <crimsun> hopefully you don't have what i have, meaning that /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX1_port_logicaldev_input_0 gets info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.mouse', 'input.touchpad', 'access_control'}
[01:24] <crimsun> it makes for very, very (un)amusing loss of functionality upon hal restart
[01:25] <DanaG> For default settings, or for exps parameter?
[01:25] <crimsun> default settings
[01:26] <DanaG>  /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX3_port_logicaldev_input gets { 'input',  'input.touchpad' }
[01:26] <DanaG> The pointstick (which is, rather stupidly, no longer part of the logical touchpad device!) gets name PS/2 Generic Mouse, and capabilities input, input.mouse, and access_control.
[01:27] <DanaG> Passing exps makes the stick fall under the the touchpad (as I think it damn well should be!)... but then the touchpad does not get the input.touchpad capability.
[01:28] <DanaG> http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/6/7
[01:29] <DanaG> Is it really supposed to be _useful_ to have an unconfigurable stick device?
[01:29] <DanaG> Oh yeah, and when I still had the match by input.touchpad.... it used evdev.... and the middle-emulation-disable and scroll-emulation-enable both worked.
[01:30] <DanaG> In Windows... it shows up as one device in device manager.
[01:33] <crimsun> oh, i presumed you were using input-hotplug
[01:33] <crimsun> is that not the case?
[01:33] <DanaG> I am, actually.  Custom fdi files.
[01:34] <DanaG> Do you happen to know how the synaptics xorg module actually decides whether something is a touchpad?
[01:34] <DanaG> Apparently, it's not by name.
[01:36] <IdleOne> since we are on the touchpad subject is it possible to get touchpad to activate itself when unplugging usb mouse and then deactivate when pluggin back in?
[01:38] <IdleOne> or better yet. can I possibly use one mouse on two monitors using separate system?
[01:39] <crimsun> DanaG: it's actually in xfree86-driver-synaptics-0.15.2/src/synaptics.c::QueryHardware()
[01:40] <crimsun> the actual structure is synhw
[01:41] <crimsun> this is invoked from xf86OpenSerial()
[01:41] <crimsun> see also SynapticsPreInit()
[01:43] <crimsun> the identification of models is in src/ps2comm.c::ps2_synaptics_identify()
[01:45] <crimsun> IdleOne: to the former question, yes
[01:46] <IdleOne> crimsun, is the a link I can follow for directions on how?
[01:47] <crimsun> IdleOne: no idea, i haven't searched the 'net
[01:47] <IdleOne> ok but it is doable
[01:47] <crimsun> quite
[01:47] <IdleOne> well then
[01:47]  * IdleOne goes searching
[01:50] <IdleOne> http://maketecheasier.com/ubuntu-hardy-disable-synaptics-touchpad-when-typing/2008/06/24   not exactly what I want but could be useful
[01:57] <IdleOne> well hot tamales....I have a button to turn on and off the touchpad
[01:57] <IdleOne> would still be nice if this issue could be done automagically with Synaptics
[02:02] <DanaG> hmm, I'll have to muck around in the source a bit, after dinner.  (was helping set the table.)
[02:02] <DanaG> It looks like the synaptics xorg driver assumes it will get the guest device's input directly... but then the kernel portion goes behind its back and breaks the guest device out as a secondary psmouse device.

[03:27] <crimsun> x1250: just commented on that bug

[03:29] <RAOF> x1250: So, presumably that file was corrupt.  Someone should post their copy of it.

[03:29] <x1250> RAOF, post the corrupted file?

[03:30] <crimsun> x1250: yes, thanks
[03:37] <x1250> crimsun, RAOF, I posted the file. Anyway, after restarting X, the file was not regenerated, it doesn't exist now.
[04:09] <DanaG> argh, yeah.. radeon driver is broken.
[04:10] <DanaG> Undefined symbol.
[04:14] <DanaG> That pass-through thing really is lame, as long as there's no driver for the stick directly.
[04:18] <DanaG> ... and why the heck is pulseaudio flooding the network even though I have no audio playing in any apps whatsoever on any computer?
[04:32] <x1250> because pulseaudio sucks? :)
[04:33] <burner> constructive
[04:33] <x1250> joke :P
[04:33] <RAOF> DanaG: Because you've got a RTP broadcast sink set up?
[04:33] <DanaG> Nope.
[04:33] <DanaG> I'm not even playing any audio.
[04:34] <DanaG> And in netstat... it shows as going to my router, of all things.
[05:03] <DanaG> Argh... that's so stupid: the passthrough port renders the guest mouse useless.
[05:04] <DanaG> Instead of having it show up as a guest mouse to synclient and to the Synaptics xorg driver........ it instead shows up as a frickin' generic, untweakable mouse.  Stupid.

[11:55] <laotseu> I've an issue with my nvidia driver under jaunty (i know it's not stable, but just want to know if somebody knows a workaroud). everything worked well until my last dist-upgrade. Now, i've to use the "nv" driver, if i try to install "nvidia-glx-177" apt wants to remove xorg & co ... does somebody know when it'll be ok ?
[11:56] <laotseu> it is not very important, but i'm just looking for information :)
[12:03] <RAOF> laotseu: The nvidia driver needs to be updated for the new Xserver ABI (again).  It won't be installable until then.
[13:09] <prahal_> hi I compiled at-spi without xevie support as otherwise its registry fails to start under xorg 1.6 (which does not have xevie anymore). Now rhythmbox mmkeys plugin (mulimedia keys) fails to work (more important it nearly freezes rhythmbox). Killing at-spi fixes this though I wondered if somebody versed into key managment could enlighten me about what could be wrong when at-spi is on
[13:10] <prahal_> so I could attempt to fix it . Or confirm that at-spi-registryd and rhythmbox plays well together when xevie support is available ( <= intrepid)
[13:11] <ikonia> not sure what your asking
[13:12] <hischild> prahal_, intrepid is in #ubuntu
[13:13] <prahal_> if rhythmbox does not stall for minutes when pressing a multimedia key on intrepid in short :) or if anyone using a non modified at-spi have at-spi-registryd running at the same time as rhythmbox on jaunty and pressing a multimedia key does not crawl his box
[13:14] <prahal_> thanks I ll ask the pre jaunty part in #ubuntu. I am still interested in experience about the jaunty part :)
