Helping folks with xrandr issues

[Kai Hendry]

Hi there,


What's good general advice for dealing with xrandr issues for end users?

I had a look at http://x.debian.net/
The search link on https://lists.debian.org/debian-x/ is pretty useless

I tried to help a user here:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/123953/
And I ended up pointing him to Intel's report bug page
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html which does seem
to be a really high barrier for entry for average Joe User.

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/webc-users/0lTYXqQLkJw/it626uMsAk8J
is an nvidia issue (I think) on the Debian based distro I work on. I'm
not sure what actually power the nvidia hardware here, though the
package list can be found at:
http://download.webconverger.com/webc-12.3.txt

In these cases can I assume it's the video drivers fault if xrandr fails?

Any other hints to help debugging would be great. For example when I
switch to some modes in xrandr on some machines, the monitor just goes
black and then I'm not sure what to do next.


Thank you for any tips in advance,

Thanks for testing.  Reassigning.

Roger et al: please feel free to lower severity or reassign as
appropriate, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to
ask.  Thanks for your work to keep the base system working well in the
next release.

Jonathan

Aha! I only downgraded sysvinit and sysvinit-utils. With
initscripts=2.88dsf-22.1, keyboard and mouse are functional once again.

Whatever is wrong, it seems to originate in initscripts

Peculiar.  I ran into similar symptoms (mouse and keyboard no longer
working in X after a very recent routine upgrade with the experimental
suite enabled), too.  No udev upgrade involved.  Downgrading sysvinit
and initscripts to the version in sid and rebooting got the mouse and
keyboard working again.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan

X11 Record extension library (documentation)
 libXtst provides an X Window System client interface to the Record
 extension to the X protocol.
 .
 The Record extension allows X clients to synthesise input events, which
 is useful for automated testing.
 .
 This package contains the API documentation for the X Record and XTEST
 extension libraries.  Non-developers likely have little use for this package.
 .
 More information about X.Org can be found at:
 http://www.X.org>

Changes:
libxtst (2:1.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
  * New upstream release.
  * Split documentation to a separate package.  Mark libxtst-dev Multi-Arch:
same.
  * Don't build the documentation from the build-arch target.
  * Bump build-deps on xutils-dev, xmlto and xorg-sgml-doctools per
configure.ac.


Override entries for your package:
libxtst-dev_1.2.1-1_amd64.deb - optional libdevel
libxtst6-dbg_1.2.1-1_amd64.deb - extra debug
libxtst6-udeb_1.2.1-1_amd64.udeb - optional debian-installer
libxtst6_1.2.1-1_amd64.deb - optional libs
libxtst_1.2.1-1.dsc - source x11

Announcing to debian-devel-chan...@lists.debian.org


Your package contains new components which requires manual editing of
the override file.  It is ok otherwise, so please be patient.  New
packages are usually added to the override file about once a week.

You may have gotten the distribution wrong.  You'll get warnings above
if files already exist in other distributions.

This bit looks broken, fwiw, so this seems to be either an udev or
kernel issue.

Yes I was, however, downgrading does not fix the problem.

Can't seem to reproduce that.

Can you get a gdb backtrace with the xserver-xorg-video-radeon-dbg and
xserver-xorg-core-dbg packages installed?

Bug#666982: now crashes with EXAPixmaps off

[Jérémy Lal]

Since i added that option as a workaround,
X started crashing (no logs) since xserver-xorg-video-ati/1:6.14.4-2.

I could reliably reproduce a crash by opening the /network (forks) page
of any github project with chromium 18.

Disabling EXAPixmaps off solved the problem...

Jérémy.

Bug#670156: xserver-xorg-core: input devices no longer detected

[Brian Paterni]

Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.11.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I can no longer use my keyboard/mouse after startx since X seems to no longer
detect input devices. I'm not sure exactly what package is responsible since
this started happening yesterday. Initially I was using a combination of
unstable/experimental X packages, but since I've downgraded to just unstable the
problem still persists.

As noted in bug #585642 my devices are also missing ID_INPUT attributes for some
reason.

Let me know if I can provide anything more.

Re: Bug#665004: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: scrolling stopped working after upgrade 1.5.0 --> 1.5.99

[phil colbourn]

I attempted a git bisect.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46617

I'm new to this so I may not be correct. This it the patch that introduced
this behaviour for me.

phil@min:~/Development/synaptics.git$ git bisect good

cddab79c408db3b13905a2be72aff4f7bf1406f8 is the first bad commit
commit cddab79c408db3b13905a2be72aff4f7bf1406f8
Author: Peter Hutterer 
Date:   Thu Mar 1 16:27:01 2012 +1000

Fix scoll increment for non-smooth scrolling (#46617)

Introduced in 2603ad69b997c999404ecc441e0d64ea2cc22018. Previously, the
delta was incremented by (actual delta/scroll dist), button clicks where
then sent while (delta-- >= 1).

After 2603ad69b997c999404ecc441e0d64ea2cc22018, the delta was
incremented by
the delta only, scroll dist was used as increment in the smooth
scrolling
information. On non-smooth-scrolling servers, the driver would now send
too many events. Restore the old behaviour by dividing by the scroll
distance before entering the button click loop.
