[Bug 54191] Re: Mouse button click delayed
Still in 8.10 with all the latest auto-updates. I'm not sure what the internals are like in this, but it seems that such a "delay" means that (at least certain) mouse events are not being delivered accurately to the system or app. I think this is more serious than a simple UI annoyance as it introduces indeterminancy where there should be none (and probably did not exist prior to bug). That is, if the mouse button went down at one point, the app should not have to wait for the system to provide it with some sampled coordinates at an arbitrary later time. Given that people have found a work around by disabling the Emulate3Buttons opoeution, does it mean that for those who do use or need Emulate3Buttons, this bug remains a problem?

[Bug 54191] Re: Mouse button click delayed
I have two mouse-like devices on my system, a logitech mouse and a FingerWorks iGesture pad. Both of these worked great under Ubuntu 7.04. This weekend I upgraded to 8.10, and now the iGesture pad has trouble with click and drag.

@paul Check your X log to see if evdev is being used. I haven't tried 8.10 myself yet. Btw, fedora 10 uses evdev and has a similar problem.

Yes, evdev is being used: $ grep evdev /var/log/Xorg.0.log (II) LoadModule: "evdev" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//evdev_drv.so (II) Module evdev: vendor="X.Org Foundation" I managed to work around this problem creating an .fdi file in /etc/hal/fdi/policy to set Emulate3Buttons to false for my mouse (similar to how this is done here: http://psung.blogspot.com/2008/09 /scrolling-with-thinkpads-trackpoint-in.html) However, this workaround shouldn't be necessary. xorg knows that my mouse has 3 buttons (the log states so), therefore it should automatically set Emulate3Buttons to false in this situation. I don't know anything about HAL or the .fdi files (there appears to be no documentation anywhere). Is it possible to detect 3 mouse buttons and change the Emulate3Buttons setting purely through .fdi files?

Still in 8.10 with all the latest auto-updates. I'm not sure what the internals are like in this, but it seems that such a "delay" means that (at least certain) mouse events are not being delivered accurately to the system or app. I think this is more serious than a simple UI annoyance as it introduces indeterminancy where there should be none (and probably did not exist prior to bug). That is, if the mouse button went down at one point, the app should not have to wait for the system to provide it with some sampled coordinates at an arbitrary later time.

I have two mouse-like devices on my system, a logitech mouse and a FingerWorks iGesture pad. Both of these worked great under Ubuntu 7.04. This weekend I upgraded to 8.10, and now the iGesture pad has trouble with click and drag. I have tried adjusting drag threshold and so forth, but still I have to wait 1/2 second after 'clicking' with the iGesture pad before I can move it to make a selection. This problem exists always, no matter how long the system has been running. my Xorg.0.log file shows that evdev is being used, but it says it only detects 1 mouse button on the iGesture pad.

The workaround for the click delay in Intrepid: 1. Execute xinput list and note your mouse name. For me, this is "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse". 2. Create the file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-3button.fdi, containing (replace the mouse name with yours!): false 3. Unplug your mouse and replug it. (This won't suffice if it's a PS/2 mouse i guess.

I have tried adjusting drag threshold and so forth, but still I have to wait 1/2 second after 'clicking' with the iGesture pad before I can move it to make a selection. This problem exists always, no matter how long the system has been running. my Xorg.0.log file shows that evdev is being used, but it says it only detects 1 mouse button on the iGesture pad. I'm sorry I do not know what it used to detect under 7.04 I've attached my Xorg.0.log look at this part: (II) config/hal: Adding input device FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB (**) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: always reports core events (**) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: Device: "/dev/input/event5" (II) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: Found x and y relative axes (II) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: Found 1 mouse buttons (II) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: Configuring as mouse (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB" (type: MOUSE) (**) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 (**) FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout : 200 but hmm, xinput says: "FingerWorks iGesture Pad USB" id=10 [XExtensionPointer] Num_buttons is 32 Num_axes is 2 Mode is Relative Motion_buffer is 256 Axis 0 : Min_value is -1 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 1 Axis 1 : Min_value is -1 Max_value is -1 Resolution is 1 (32 buttons, not 1) ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20216125/Xorg.0.log -- Mouse button click delayed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/54191 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 54191] Re: Mouse button click delayed
The workaround for the click delay in Intrepid: 1. Execute xinput list and note your mouse name. For me, this is "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse". 2. Create the file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-3button.fdi, containing (replace the mouse name with yours!): false 3. Unplug your mouse and replug it. (This won't suffice if it's a PS/2 mouse i guess. In this case reboot.) -- Mouse button click delayed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/54191 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 54191] Re: Mouse button click delayed
I see no reason to enable emulate3buttons in xorg.conf. It's autodetected anyway and autodetection also enables a timeout on move for the 3 button emulation, eliminating this annoying problem.

Same in 7.10, and is noticeable in all apps (Inkscape!!!) and games (quake 3), not just the window manager.
