sluggish X.org/Xfce behavior
Hi, since last weekend (November 17th) I have been noticing a sluggish behavior of X.org/Xfce. Typical symptoms are: - Alt-Tab not reacting all of the time - pulldown/popup menus not allowing selections with mouse (typically in Terminal/pidgin), or moving the mouse (touchpad) results in an automatic click - typing something in a Terminal requires mouse (touchpad) movements for the text to show up - sometimes moving the mouse (touchpad) is required for the laptop to wake up; this is noticeable when Thunderbird downloads all messages from the period when the laptop was frozen. I am running 10-amd64 r243234 (so with clang as cc) and ports 307851 without any local modifications. Since November 5 (when clang became cc) I noticed x11/nvidia-driver and x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse were updated but rebuilding those with gcc did not make any difference. Maybe I missed a related port? All ports last updated before November 5th are still built with gcc. My /etc/make.conf and /etc/rc.conf are attached. Has anyone else been noticing this?

Very interesting symptoms. I had the same until xf86-input-mouse was fixed with the last update. The symptoms were reproducible when attaching an USB mouse which caused all kind of weird X11 (re)drawing issues. -- Bernhard Froehlich http://www.bluelife.at/ ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Exactly, known issue with xorg-mouse and xorg configuration + hald + allowEmptyInput, see list archive for good explanation :-) Best regards :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

This is one of the problems that having Option AllowEmptyInput Off in xorg.conf causes. If you have that, substitute Option AutoAddDevices Off in the same place.___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Commenting out AllowEmptyInput Off (and not having an AutoAddDevices entry) works for me. Must do better homework...
