Re: [arch-general] Xsession inconsitencies in login managers

As for the scrips in lxdm and lightdm, they're essentially the same already (note that lightdm doesn't come with one at all, I shamelessly copied gentoo's script). Of course I'm open to suggestions to improve the lightdm script as there is no upstream there. Cheers, -- Maxime
[arch-general] No thermal detection on linux 3.15.1-1
Hi I use a MacBook Pro (beggining on 2011), tlp and mbpfan-git. On 3.14, the fans works OK and tlp-stat -t output something like this : --- TLP 0.5 +++ Temperatures Fan speed = 2001 [/min] Temperature = 50°C Now, on 3.15, the temperature line in tlp-stat isn't present and the fans are at the minimum level (2000/min).

It's related with this bug[1]. Some files in /sys have moved, softwares need to be patched. [1]: https://github.com/dgraziotin/Fan-Control-Daemon/issues/38
Re: [arch-general] Setup of HiDPI with awesome wm
I'll admit that I'm not familiar with awesome wm, but I just wanted to let you know that the new version of i3 that just hit Arch a few days ago now supports HiDPI displays. I'm looking forward to trying it when the Lenovo Y50 w/HiDPI becomes available next month.

Is there someone who is in the same situation? and what is your workaround? Please note that I am using Awesome WM and thus cannot use the scaling factor(Gnome 3) as described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI One option I thought of would be to create an udev rule that would detect the monitor's connection and trigger a script that would make all the necessary connfiguration changes. What do you guys think? Thanks!

I'm not sure, but maybe you can try the `xrandr --scale` option. It will make applications believe that the resolution is different than it really is. It may somehow blur the borders, but with such a high resolution it shouldn't be a problem. For example, assuming that your 3K display output is named LVDS-0: xrandr --output LVDS-0 --scale 0.5x0.5 will make it show the image twice bigger. One option I thought of would be to create an udev rule that would detect the monitor's connection and trigger a script that would make all the necessary connfiguration changes. What do you guys think? If you decide to use `xrandr`, the two display outputs will have different names, so there will be independent --scale options: xrandr --output LVDS-0 --scale 0.5x0.5 xrandr --output VGA-0 --scale 1x1# for illustration purposes: it is the default No need to hack udev!

[arch-general] No libutil.a in core/glibc
Hi,
Why is there no static libutil (libutil.a) in the glibc package? The
PKGBUILD has options=(staticlibs) which is supposed to keep *.a files, and
indeed, there are some static libraries like libpthread{,_nonshared}.a. Was
static libutil removed by upstream?
Thanks,

[arch-general] How do you configure the new i2c_hid touchpad driver?
Hi, I just upgraded to the 3.15.1-1 kernel and I'm having issues with my touchpad. In 3.14 I had blacklisted the i2c_hid module so that I could use the old synaptics touchpad driver but seemed to break in 3.15 so I unblacklisted the module so now I'm using i2c_hid instead. The trouble is that the touchpad is not configured correctly with this driver (scrolling does not work at all) and I don't know how to configure it. With the old driver I used the synclient tool and also set options in /etc/X11/xorg.d/50-synaptics.conf This doesn't work with the new driver. I see the following in /var/log/Xorg.0.log ``` [ 9.726] (II) config/udev: Adding input device DLL060A:00 06CB:2734 (/dev/input/event8) [ 9.726] (**) DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Applying InputClass evdev pointer catchall [ 9.726] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'DLL060A:00 06CB:2734' [ 9.726] (**) DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: always reports core events [ 9.726] (**) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Device: /dev/input/event8 [ 9.757] (--) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Vendor 0x6cb Product 0x2734 [ 9.757] (--) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Found 3 mouse buttons [ 9.757] (--) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Found relative axes [ 9.757] (--) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Found x and y relative axes [ 9.757] (II) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: Configuring as mouse [ 9.757] (**) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 9.757] (**) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200 [ 9.757] (**) Option config_info udev:/sys/devices/pci:00/INT33C3:00/i2c-0/i2c-DLL060A:00/0018:06CB:2734.0002/input/input11/event8 [ 9.757] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device DLL060A:00 06CB:2734 (type: MOUSE, id 11) [ 9.757] (II) evdev: DLL060A:00 06CB:2734: initialized for relative axes.

I took a look at its man page for evdev and there's no mention of two-finger scrolling which is what I want (worked fine in the old driver). Does anyone know how to configure the new driver? Cheers, Dan.
