Duke` | I wonder why when using xorg-edgers, vertical scrolling with my touchpad has been broken for years, but every Ubuntu release, it works fine with official packages. Any idea? | 10:27 |
---|---|---|
tjaalton | Duke`: which kernel do you use? | 10:33 |
tjaalton | stock ubuntu or something else | 10:33 |
Duke` | something else (kernel from ppa) | 10:35 |
tjaalton | so you have an alps device and the kernel doesn't have a patch to add the scrolling functionality.. | 10:36 |
Duke` | alps? | 10:36 |
tjaalton | xinput list | 10:36 |
Duke` | and I thought that the kernel-ppa delivered futur "ubuntu official" kernels, with all patchs | 10:37 |
tjaalton | no, probably some vanilla rc | 10:38 |
tjaalton | boot with the stock kernel and test | 10:38 |
Duke` | hum | 10:40 |
Amaranth | tjaalton: why would such a patch remain out of upstream for so long? | 10:45 |
tjaalton | Amaranth: never got accepted | 10:45 |
Amaranth | tjaalton: ever try again? | 10:45 |
tjaalton | Amaranth: not my patch :) | 10:46 |
Amaranth | ah | 10:46 |
tjaalton | maybe there is a thread somewhere about it, Sarvatt might know | 10:46 |
Duke` | I'll try to boot an official ubuntu kernel in a moment, to see if it works again | 10:53 |
Duke` | now running official natty kernel (2.6.38-11), vertical scrolling is still broken. It worked before installing xorg-edgers (it works if I run a live-cd). It doesn't seem to be a kernel issue. | 11:40 |
tjaalton | ok then | 11:42 |
