Hi,
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T60 amd64 laptop (dmesg below) running 5.1-stable
(fresh install of -release from the CD set, then CVS update to -stable).
The touchpad
pms0 at pckbc0 (aux slot)
wsmouse0 at pms0 mux 0
wsmouse1 at pms0 mux 0
pms0: Synaptics touchpad, firmware 6.2
has an irritating problem in 5.1 (which was *not* present on this same
machine when running 5.0-{release,stable} with X video acceleration
disabled): When running X (autoconfigured with no xorg.conf), the
pointer will intermittently jump to and "stick" at either the left side
of the screen, the top of the screen, or the top left corner. When
stuck to the left side of the screen the pointer will only move up/down,
not left/right; when stuck to the top side of the screen the pointer
will only move left/right, not up/down; when stuck to the top left
corner the pointer won't move at all.
The only way I've found to recover from a "stuck" state is to press
(any) one of the touchpad buttons; that allows the pointer to be moved
in both directions again.
The mean occurence rate is on the order of 3-5 "stickings" per hour,
but there seems to be clustering, with several pairs or triplets less
than 10 seconds apart. I've kept a log of all "stickings" this since
I updated to 5.1-stable 8 days ago. In that time, I've had a total
of 118 "stickings" (24 top-side, 77 left-side, 17 top-left-corner),
including 5 in the time it took me to compose this message.
I think (but am not certain) that all the "stickings" have occured when
I used the touchpad to move the pointer. That is, I think (but am not
certain) that no "sticking" has ever happened *without* my touching the
touchpad.
One other thing that may be relevant... Moving from 5.0 to 5.1 the
touchpad is much more "sensitive", i.e., the ratio
(cm pointer movement)/(cm finger movement on touchpad)
went up by about an order of magnitude. In 5.0 and before I used
'xset m 2 10' in my .xinitrc; in 5.1 I'm using 'xset m 1/4' to
compensate for the higher sensitivity.
Has anyone else seen this "sticky touchpad" problem? Is there a known
workaround/fix? Are there useful debug options I could enable in the pms
driver or elsewhere to gather more information?
