[10:27] <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?
[10:33] <tjaalton> Duke`: which kernel do you use?
[10:33] <tjaalton> stock ubuntu or something else
[10:35] <Duke`> something else (kernel from ppa)
[10:36] <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
[10:37] <Duke`> and I thought that the kernel-ppa delivered futur "ubuntu official" kernels, with all patchs
[10:38] <tjaalton> no, probably some vanilla rc
[10:38] <tjaalton> boot with the stock kernel and test
[10:40] <Duke`> hum
[10:45] <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?
[10:46] <tjaalton> Amaranth: not my patch :)
[10:46] <Amaranth> ah
[10:46] <tjaalton> maybe there is a thread somewhere about it, Sarvatt might know
[10:53] <Duke`> I'll try to boot an official ubuntu kernel in a moment, to see if it works again
[11:40] <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.
[11:42] <tjaalton> ok then
[16:16] <ricotz> tseliot, hello

[16:21] <tseliot> ricotz: or you can wait until tomorrow. As you prefer..
[16:23] <ricotz> i think i will do it, you can take the tarball from there if you like
[16:23] <tseliot> ok
