| Spass | ok, today I have the issue with the NumLock enabled again, I ran "laptop-detect ;echo $?" and I've got "0" in response | 07:21 |
|---|---|---|
| Spass | and I think I know why, yesterday I was testing it on on the battery, and it was all fine | 07:22 |
| Spass | today my AC adapter is plugged in | 07:22 |
| Spass | maybe that is the issue here | 07:24 |
| Spass | and I have my mouse plugged in today, maybe that's important too | 07:25 |
| Unit193 | A return code of 0 means it is a laptop/netbook/mobile. | 07:25 |
| Spass | hmm, in that case that numlockx behaviour is random | 07:26 |
| Spass | no idea why suddenly today it was enabled on my login screen, yesterday I was rebooting like 4 times and it was ok | 07:27 |
| Unit193 | I presume you have modified nothing in /etc/default/numlockx? | 07:27 |
| Spass | nothing, I left it is it was, auto | 07:28 |
| Spass | brb, will reboot again | 07:29 |
| Spass | did some tests, many reboots, and - my mouse is the culprit | 07:41 |
| Unit193 | ...Your mouse? | 07:42 |
| Spass | when it's plugged in on boot I have NumLock enabled | 07:42 |
| Spass | when I unplug it and reboot, it's all ok | 07:42 |
| Unit193 | Ooooooh. | 07:42 |
| Unit193 | I thought I saw some sort of mouse code in there somewhere. | 07:43 |
| Spass | it's a mouse from my desktop, maybe my Dell knows... ;) | 07:43 |
| Spass | smart machine | 07:43 |
| Spass | anyway, yeah, that's why it was working yesterday and before | 07:43 |
| Spass | still, if it detects that I'm on a laptop correctly, why NL is on? my mouse shouldn't be a factor here | 07:45 |
| Spass | a bug maybe? | 07:45 |
| Spass | should I test with other mouse? | 07:48 |
| flocculant | iirc - if AC it numlock's on | 19:56 |
| flocculant | ochosi: default panel when you first start up - and have no windows or anything open looks rather bizarre - we have a visible seperator right next to whiskermenu | 20:01 |

| ochosi | flocculant: yeah, the separator is a matter of configuration though | 20:12 |
| ochosi | it used to be practically invisible in gtk2, which was not really a good thing tbh | 20:12 |
| ochosi | so i fixed it in the code | 20:12 |
| ochosi | but you can make the separator go away by deactivating the "show handle" setting in the window list | 20:13 |
| ochosi | if you still want some invisible space in between, you can add an invisible separator | 20:13 |
| ochosi | maybe something to discuss with bluesabre for the default panel layout | 20:13 |
| flocculant | ochosi: ack - I'm just talking about our default here - any seperators I've got only exist in my head :) | 20:23 |
| flocculant | just think it looks a tad bizarre when empty :) | 20:24 |
| ochosi | ppl will get used to it ;) | 20:24 |
| flocculant | heh | 20:24 |
| ochosi | also, i could tone it down more in greybird | 20:24 |
| ochosi | but imo it's supposed to be visible | 20:24 |
| ochosi | at least if enabled | 20:25 |
| ochosi | otherwise what's the point | 20:25 |
| flocculant | ftr - I'm totally for us making them more visible than the old gtk2 style | 20:25 |
| flocculant | and yea would agree your last point too | 20:25 |
| ochosi | kk good | 20:25 |
| * flocculant wanders off again | 20:26 | |
| flocculant | back a bit more over the next few days - then invisible for a week | 20:27 |
| flocculant | week after I'm back we have 18.04.1 and then 16.04.5 in concurrent weeks | 20:28 |
| Spass | flocculant, in my case AC didn't matter, just the mouse plugged in or not | 20:47 |
| krytarik | Spass: https://sources.debian.org/src/numlockx/1.2-7.1/debian/55numlockx/#L30 - run the command in backticks there to see if your mouse identifies itself as a keyboard instead. Also, what is it exactly? | 21:45 |
| Spass | krytarik, ok 1 sec, need to boot my laptop, my mouse is Logitech G700, right now I run it wired with no batteries | 21:49 |
| bluesabre | ochosi, flocculant, cool with dropping the handle and adding an invisible separator | 21:53 |
| Spass_ | krytarik, is that enough to tell something? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/xtbN9yWV6q/ | 22:04 |
| krytarik | Spass_: And what is the output of "evtest"? | 22:08 |
| Spass_ | krytarik, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WMCfpn4jyp/ | 22:12 |
| Spass_ | you know what? I think I know what can cause that... that mouse has built in button profiles and my current profile has some of the buttons assigned to some media keys | 22:13 |
| Spass_ | like XF86AudioLowerVolume and XF86AudioMute | 22:14 |
| Spass_ | so maybe my system thinks it's some kind of mouse / keyboard hybrid | 22:15 |
| Spass_ | yeah... that could be it, I need to test it more tomorrow, in that case I'd probably need to live with it forever, no way any dev will try to fix that corner case issue | 22:17 |
| Spass_ | or my profile doesn't even matter here, just look at those "supported events" :) https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5ySCPGcnQR/ | 22:21 |
| krytarik | "udevadm info --query=all --name=input/event7" - for completeness. And I would think 'ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD' is independent from whether or not any of those extra buttons are actually assigned to any keys. | 22:22 |
| Spass_ | yup, =1 :/ https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SJf3YFsF3Q/ | 22:25 |
| krytarik | And of course, you can always set it manually in '/etc/default/numlockx' then. | 22:26 |
| Spass_ | yeah, no other way around it, numlockx dev "probably" isn't interested in excluding every weird mouse model in the code | 22:27 |
| Spass_ | thank you very much krytarik for helping me investigate that issue | 22:28 |
| krytarik | Sure. :) | 22:29 |
| Spass_ | NUMLOCK=off, will reboot and see | 22:30 |
| Spass | yup, works as intended, no more issue and I've learned new things \o | 22:34 |
| Spass | \o/ (that's what I wanted) | 22:34 |
| krytarik | :D | 22:34 |
