| Smedles | Hi all, fresh install of 19.04 on the weekend, was working fine until updating and rebooting today, now got a desktop where the mouse pointer moves, but keyboard input and mouse clicks do nothing.... | 07:54 |
| Smedles | Any suggestions? | 07:54 |
| lotuspsychje | Smedles: tail -f /var/log/syslog and plug out keyboard & mouse and plug back in please | 07:55 |
| lotuspsychje | Smedles: lets see if we can trace errors | 07:55 |
| Smedles | It's a laptop, so can't unplug keyboard/mouse | 07:56 |
| Smedles | I can't get a command prompt to run tail, other than from recovery | 07:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Smedles: tryed a reboot yet? | 07:56 |
| Smedles | Multiple reboots, same behaviour | 07:56 |
| lotuspsychje | right okay | 07:57 |
| Smedles | I can try plugging a USB keyboard in to see if it changes anything | 07:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Smedles: can you pastebin us your dmesg? | 07:57 |
| Smedles | Does http://smedley.id.au/tmp/smedles.log help? | 07:58 |

| cmyrland | hi. originally posted in #ubuntu, and was told to come here instead, so I'll repost here: | 09:24 |
| cmyrland | Hello all. I've been out of the Ubuntu-game for a while, but I'm trying to get back at it. I realise there are tons of forums and other sources where I might find answers, but after being away from the community for a while, I figured I'd start here. I've bought a Huawei Matebook X Pro, and Ubuntu 19.04 runs nicely out of the box, but there are a few minor issues: 1) Ubuntu doesn't allow gestures | 09:24 |
| cmyrland | other than two-finger scrolling. 2) It's a hidef panel with 3000x2000 resolution, which means I need to scale stuff up for it to be readable. the 200% setting works nice, but when I attach my 2nd screen, a 1080p standard old desktop monitor, I either have to choose readability on the one or the other. 200% scaling on the desktop screen looks ridiculous, and 100% scaling renders the laptop screen | 09:24 |
| cmyrland | unuable. 3) I'd love to use the finger print reader to log in, like I do in Windows, but it doesn't appear to work. Other than that, things are looking pretty good! Any help with those questions is greatly appreciated. | 09:24 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: for additional mouse settings you can try: gnome-tweak-tool | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: for your scaling, do you have the correct graphics driver installed? | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: software&updates last tab additional drivers | 09:31 |
| cmyrland | lotuspsychje: the gnome-tweak-tools doesn't give me the option to enable gestures. I might need some plugins or another touchpad driver? I have installed the latest nvidia binary blob from the repository for graphics, so I figure it should be all good. It used nouveau as default, but the behave the same way in this resepct. | 09:31 |
| cmyrland | lotuspsychje: yeah, it only listed the nvidia drivers. | 09:31 |
| cmyrland | ok, gtg, but I'll read all suggestions and try them/answer them later in the afternoon. | 09:32 |
| === cpaelzer__ is now known as cpaelzer | ||
| cmyrland | uh, upon losing my internet connection, I also lost all history after my earlier questions. sigh. | 11:15 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: we were discussing your nvidia driver version | 11:15 |
| Peppep | cmyrland: https://snag.gy/oVzwrM.jpg | 11:25 |
| tomreyn | https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/04/05/%23ubuntu+1.html | 11:47 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: ^ | 11:48 |
| cmyrland | thanks, so nothing more since I left. does nvidia still provide a "control center" blob for their drivers? | 12:01 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: you didnt say yet wich graphics chipset you have, neither your driver version | 12:04 |
| tomreyn | some kind of gui apparently still comes with the proprietary drivers, yes | 12:04 |
| cmyrland | its a MX150 chipset, with the 418 driver | 12:20 |
| cmyrland | the control center only enables switching between the nvidia and intel gfx chip | 12:20 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: i dont think an mx150 likes driver 418 | 12:21 |
| cmyrland | but the question is, does Gnome/Ubuntu allow for independent scaling between screens? | 12:21 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: i would go for a 390 test for starters | 12:21 |
| cmyrland | I'm not on my home setup atm, so I wont be able to test for any effects until tonight, but I'm installing the 390 now | 12:22 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: all you need for scaling is in the system settings, or dconf-editor | 12:24 |
| cmyrland | man, there's a really terrible connection here. but ok, I'll but the scaling issue on hold until I get home so I can test it. Any ideas on how to resolve the mouse gestures? I've also discovered that the touchscreen also lacks gesture recognition, not even two-finger scrolling. Tapping and moving stuff around works fine. | 12:37 |
| cmyrland | s/but/put | 12:38 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: 2 finger scroll 'should' be finded in the systemsettings/devices/mouse | 12:41 |
| lotuspsychje | cmyrland: (if) your touchpad is found/enabled.. | 12:42 |
| cmyrland | yes, two ringer scrolling on the touchpad is OK. it's on the touch screen (the laptop has a really good tablet-like touch screen) I'm having issues. And other gestures like pinch to zoom | 13:05 |

| Zuverink | is enabling the wayland support in 19.04 going to provide me with any benefits? I have it installed on a laptop? Maybe I'm confused as to Waylands intended purpose. I like early adoption | 15:19 |
| OerHeks | Zuverink, you can test it: out, logout, change session, login | 15:20 |
| Zuverink | OerHeks, You've talked me into it with you persuasive arguments! | 15:21 |
| OerHeks | :-D | 15:22 |
| OerHeks | the only thing that prevents wayland session, is when you have nvidia drivers installed | 15:22 |
| Zuverink | OerHeks, Whats a reinstall, just another chance to do it closer to perfect. Totally loving the minimal install option! | 15:22 |
| Zuverink | OerHeks, No Nvidia here, just good old intel | 15:23 |
| OerHeks | oke, then you are good | 15:24 |
| Zuverink | OerHeks, Gnome 3.32 has breathed new life into standard Ubunto for me, quick, responsive... Renewed my passion for the distro | 15:25 |
| Zuverink | Not sure where to report this but for as long as I've used the Online Account section of settings it continues through release after release to lose google account credentials resulting in having to remove the google account and reenter it. Ill do whatever to report this officially, just point me to how and to who. | 18:05 |
| Zuverink | Its a bug passed on to all Gnome spin odd like Mint. Maybe it's upstream Gnome??? | 18:06 |
| Zuverink | Not a programmer but wanna help. | 18:06 |
| Peppep | Is it possible to disable the Nvidia card without the Nvidia driver? My approach so far has been to install the driver and select "Intel (power saving mode)" in nvidia-settings to reduce power consumption from 14-15W to 7-8W | 18:24 |
| * Zuverink is away: I'm busy | 20:06 | |
| leonardus | will 19.04 have wayland again? | 20:09 |
| Eickmeyer | leonardus: Yes, and it will be installed, but it will not be the default. | 20:11 |
| leonardus | will it ever be default in the near future versions of ubuntu? | 20:11 |
| Eickmeyer | leonardus: There's no way to tell. | 20:11 |
| Bashing-om | leonardus: Wayland is not projected as default in 20.04 - but that is way in the future - lots can change :P | 20:12 |
| Bashing-om | leonardus: See: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=No-Wayland-Default-20.04-LTS . | 20:14 |
| leonardus | thank you | 20:14 |
| ckopn | I use DD on acer swift 1 , and it is going so smooth that i want to upgrade my home pc from 18.04 | 22:00 |
