Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Version: 0.14.7~git20070517-2 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line *** Hardware: Compaq Presario F500 Reproducible: very often Steps to reproduce: 1. Turn touchpad off below keyboard 2. Turn it on again 3. Repeat 1-2 if needed (usually not needed) Effects: 1. KDE help manager pops up on the screen. It steals focus, i.e. after clicking on any desktop, any other application it shows up on the top of the screen. Then nothing else can be done, but hopefully touchpad works and allows selecting KDE menu position to log off and on, when the bug disappears. It is hard, but possible to save unsaved work - by clicking on one's application very often and pressing save keys (in order to trigger the action before KDE help message gets focus again). In logs I could find only something like this: Synaptics DeviceOff called Synaptics DeviceOn called Synaptics DeviceOff called SetClientVersion: 0 9 SetGrabKeysState - disabled Synaptics DeviceOn called Synaptics DeviceOff called Synaptics DeviceOn called SetGrabKeysState - enabled other: Sep 1 19:21:45 laptop-rg kernel: psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 Sep 1 19:21:47 laptop-rg kernel: psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 - driver resynched. other: Sep 1 19:21:45 laptop-rg kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xd8 on isa0060/serio0).

Once ago I think I saw some callstack of crashing something related to synaptics, but I can't find it anymore. # dmesg | grep input input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0 input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /class/input/input1 input: Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input2 input: Power Button (CM) as /class/input/input3 input: Sleep Button (CM) as /class/input/input4 input: Lid Switch as /class/input/input5 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 5 bytes away. psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 4 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 1 bytes away. psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 1 bytes away. psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 5 bytes away. psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse.c: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 - driver resynched. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (400, 'unstable'), (300, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-synaptics depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12 X.Org X server -- core server xserver-xorg-input-synaptics recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
