Bug#931528: workaround: lightdm does not start and display stays off after resume from DPMS

2020-01-05 Thread Alf
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.7+19
Followup-For: Bug #931528

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
As this bug exists since upgrade from Stretch to Buster here just a few hints:
Display stays off when resuming from DPMS monitor off. Mouse events don't 
tigger resume.
Only way to get X back is switcheing console (VT) by Ctrl+Alt+F1/F7.


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
Several hints as described also by other users in bug #929834 improve the 
situation, like
using kernel 5.3
xset -s off
deactivating start of light-locker etc. finally I observed the following: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929834#161. Now I discovered 
this posting from Dai_trying:
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=10=142383#p700796
and generated a /etc/X11/xorg.conf as described
service lightdm stop
X -configure
cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

And that really works without any glitches for over a week so far.
Additionally it also solved another bug which I reported on 19. March 2019:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=893559
It caused solaar (tool to manage Logitech Unifying Receiver) failing to
start in xfce4 when set up for automatic start in session. Now it starts
reliable iconised in the xfce4-panel.

So, my guess is that this nasty bug is actually not caused by
light-locker, but instead by xorg-server which either looses the mouse
or fails to (re)start with correct configuration. With said xorg.conf
all this is gone.

Can you please have a look to

I already tried all these things and more dirty tricks before reporting

If that does not work, please open an issue upstream and let me know
bug reference for tracking.

Done, hopefully this will result in adding some important settings 
(which are available in evdev) to libinput - especially velocity scaling.

No change so far, tested with libinput10 1.11.2-1 in Buster.

Please tell me a way how I can set base speed and accelleration profile 
for a Trackball. Mice work fine with default settings - but a TRACKBALL 
needs different settings as explained above for Velocity and Acceleration:

I had to revert to evdev again and current settings are:

Bug#869785: libinput10: Can't set base velocity and acceleration to match Logitech Trackball M570

2017-07-26 Thread Alf
Package: libinput10
Version: 1.6.3-1
Severity: normal

   * What led up to the situation?
Sweitching from Jessie to Stretch makes the Trackball hardly usable.
Base Speed ist too high, acceleration is too high. It does not consider
that with just a thumb you cannot position as exactly as with a mouse.
Movements over greater distance just needs a small kick to let the ball
spin, which does not apply to mice.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
Tried to adjust the parameters with "xinput" and the XFCE-settings
without success (settings are not respected).
Tried to cheat the DPI-values as given in /lib/udev/hwdb.d/70-mouse.hwdb
for MOUSE_DPI= without success.
Btw: the polling frequeny ist not 167Hz as hwdb suggests, but 125Hz as
reported by solaar:
Wireless Trackball M570
   Codename : M570
   Kind : mouse
   Wireless PID : 1028
   Protocol : HID++ 1.0
   Polling rate : 8 ms  (=125Hz)
   Serial number: BD48472C
Firmware: 26.00.B0003
  Bootloader: 02.06
   Other: 00.01
   * What was the outcome of this action?
None of the known adjustments are respected by libinput - no changes.

For now I had to revert to xserver-xorg-input-evdev which allows
detailled adjustments to operate the trackball a comfortable way.
To obtain a "clean Xorg.log" I also had to set libinput to ignore all
mice and keyboars. All works like a charm with evdev!

Remak: xserver-xorg-input-evdev sets a Velocity Scaling (267):
10.00, while libinput sets it fixed to 15.00.

Without a updated *-r128 the package xserver-xorg-video-ati is unusable too.
