| kklimonda | hey, I have a weird issue with precise under virtualbox - when I use mouse scroll to scroll down sometimes it emits scroll up - I can see in xev that button 4 is pressed/released (but I obviously don't scroll up myself). Any idea what may be causing it? | 00:18 |
|---|---|---|
| kklimonda | hmm, maybe it's because it is being detected as a tablet.. hmm | 00:19 |
| bryceh | kklimonda, yeah a few people have mentioned seeing that issue | 00:19 |
| bryceh | there's a bug filed about it, but I don't know if a workaround is identified yet | 00:19 |
| kklimonda | ah, great | 00:20 |
| cnd | bryceh, Sarvatt: fyi, I just pushed new x11proto-input, libxi, and xorg-server patches into precise | 00:48 |
| cnd | I'm about to update evdev and synaptics | 00:48 |
| bryceh | okie | 00:48 |
| Sarvatt | cnd: so about clickpad, do you plan on enabling it via dmi quirks? | 00:48 |
| Sarvatt | thats going to be a massive quirk list i bet | 00:48 |
| cnd | Sarvatt, the kernel drivers should tell us | 00:48 |
| cnd | emphasis on "should" | 00:48 |
| Sarvatt | oh? | 00:48 |
| Sarvatt | for actual synaptics clickpads only? | 00:49 |
| cnd | the magic trackpad and macbook trackpad drivers don't yet | 00:49 |
| cnd | no, for all "buttonpads" in the kernel terms | 00:49 |
| cnd | I need to update the apple trackpad drivers so they do | 00:49 |
| cnd | we may need to dmi quirk a few synaptics models here and there | 00:50 |
| Sarvatt | good thing the kernel freezes waaaaay later than userspace :) | 00:50 |
| bryceh | wonder if/when we get the 2 new X guys if it'd be worth holding a X-team sprint? | 00:50 |
| Sarvatt | bryceh: same time as desktop sprint? | 00:50 |
| Sarvatt | imagine theres going to be individual team sprints, was assuming tjaalton and me would just go out to the desktop one | 00:50 |
| bryceh | ah, didn't know we were having a desktop sprint | 00:51 |
| Sarvatt | me neither | 00:51 |
| bryceh | yeah that'd make sense | 00:51 |
| Sarvatt | talking out of my rear | 00:51 |
| bryceh | well, if we don't still might make sense for us to do orientation for the new guy(s) | 00:51 |
| Sarvatt | worst case though yeah we totally have enough people to do an x team sprint now | 00:51 |
| Sarvatt | with 2 new people | 00:52 |
| Sarvatt | portland sounds good :) | 00:52 |
| bryceh | good point, saves at least 2 people's air fare | 00:52 |
| Sarvatt | well, DC, italy, tasmania, portland, portland, finland, insert 2 new people here | 00:53 |
| cnd | Sarvatt, bryceh: portland would be awesome | 00:53 |
| cnd | then I could come :) | 00:53 |
| cnd | hang out at least | 00:54 |
| bryceh | totally | 00:54 |
| cnd | what's our naming scheme when we need to upload something based on the latest stuff in git? | 00:54 |
| Sarvatt | what package? | 00:54 |
| cnd | evdev and synaptics | 00:55 |
| Sarvatt | version-debian-giteuropeandate-0ubuntu1? | 00:55 |
| cnd | Sarvatt, what's the definition of europeandate? | 00:55 |
| cnd | UTC? | 00:55 |
| bryceh | shouldn't it be +git ? | 00:55 |
| bryceh | YYYYMMDD | 00:56 |
| cnd | yeah, seems like it should be +git | 00:56 |
| cnd | oh, no timestamp | 00:56 |
| cnd | yeah, that would get annoying | 00:56 |
| Sarvatt | oh version+giteuropeandate-fooubuntubarX it looks like, just use whatever it used before :) | 00:57 |
| Sarvatt | 1.5.0+git20120101-1ubuntu1 | 00:57 |
| cnd | k | 00:58 |
| cnd | oh yeah, it should be obvious in the changelog | 00:58 |
| * cnd slaps himself | 00:58 | |
| Sarvatt | you're doing all the stuff there, use whats most obvious for you :) | 00:59 |
| cnd | I just want to be sure I don't do anything stipid | 00:59 |
| cnd | like put the git version in front of the date | 00:59 |
| Sarvatt | well if you update the git revision past debian use 0ubuntu instead of 1ubuntu | 00:59 |
| cnd | hmmm... looks like they've done that in the past | 00:59 |
| cnd | yeah | 01:00 |
| bryceh | yeah only use 1ubuntu when debian made the snapshot. 0ubuntu when we make it | 01:00 |

| bryceh | hum. I have no idea what my son did but my control key no longer seems to work | 20:19 |
| bryceh | xev doesn't even see it | 20:19 |
| kklimonda | bryceh: maybe he's spilled something? | 20:21 |
| bryceh | no evidence of that | 20:22 |
| kklimonda | maybe he's cleaned it afterwards ;) | 20:22 |
| bryceh | (although he did do that to a laptop keyboard once) | 20:22 |
| bryceh | heh, if I press both ctrl keys simultaneously it gives me a ctrl | 20:30 |
| bryceh | well now that was fun | 20:38 |
| JanC | bryceh: either ctrl doesn't give anything, but both combined does? | 21:02 |
| bryceh | JanC, right | 21:04 |
| bryceh | after messing with it a while I lost all keyboard input, so had to reboot anyway | 21:05 |
| bryceh | think it might have been a window manager bug, although it affected the console too. I'll see if it happens again. | 21:06 |
| bryceh | JanC, yeah if I held the L ctrl and typed R ctrl, xev showed CTRL_R clicked, and vice versa. interesting bug. | 21:07 |
| JanC | if it works right after reboot, it sounds like its a software bug indeed, but still sounds weird ☺ | 21:07 |
| bryceh | yup | 21:08 |
| JanC | laptop keyboard or USB ? | 21:08 |
| bryceh | USB | 21:08 |
| JanC | in case of USB, you can try to unplug/replug? | 21:08 |
| bryceh | I did try unplugging/replugging a few times, but no effect | 21:08 |
| JanC | then it's even weirder ☺ | 21:09 |
| JanC | as I suppose some of the software stuff gets reset then | 21:09 |
| JanC | bryceh: and if the console has the same bug, that might indicate a kernel bug :P | 21:10 |
| bryceh | yeah, nothing was in dmesg though | 21:13 |
| bryceh | restarting the window manager had a weird effect. It made it seem like ctrl was always depressed. or something. | 21:15 |
| bryceh | after restarting it once or twice more I lost keyboard entirely | 21:15 |
| jschall | Can anyone help me with this problem? My touchpad is too sensitive after an update: http://pastebin.com/QfJkDKif | 23:36 |
