Please see: https://github.com/rickysarraf/laptop-mode-tools/wiki/FAQ

Especially:

My USB Mouse / Keyboard stops working after seconds of inactivity

Many devices advertise power savings but misbehave when power savings
is triggered. Laptop Mode Tools, by default, enabled power savings for
all devices.

In newer version of Laptop Mode Tools (1.69 and above), we have revised
the default list of blacklisted devices. USB Mice, USB Keyboards and
USB Storage are obvious device types.

If you have devices, that mis-behave when running on battery, you can
blacklist them.

For details on blacklisting the device, please refer to the
configuration details in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/runtime-pm.conf

[Bug 1603659] Re: Power Management: USB mouse and keyboard laggy and loosing events

2017-07-28 Thread Hans-Georg Beyer
Hi,

I just changed from Ubuntu 14.04 (flawlessly working) to 16.04 and 
experienced a similar behavior of my Logitech, Inc. Cordless Mouse: 
after a few seconds of inactivity, the mouse exhibits a lagging 
behavior. Interestingly, using a USB cord connected mouse does not 
show this behavior.

I searched the WWW and tried all proposed actions without 
success. However, I have not found THIS bug report. Finally, as a 
last random resort, I decided to fully disable the laptop mode  
ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_TOOLS=0 in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf
and the problem disappeared. 

After that finding I searched the web regarding bugs in laptop mode 
and found this entry.

A few information:
lsusb yields (only the interesting line displayed here):

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c501 Logitech, Inc. Cordless Mouse Receiver

Relevant output of usb-devices:

T:  Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#=  2 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=046d ProdID=c501 Rev=09.10
S:  Manufacturer=Logitech
S:  Product=USB Receiver
C:  #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=50mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID  ) Sub=01 Prot=02 Driver=usbhid

I did not find any error or warning messages in the log files.

So this is definitely a bug in or wrong parametrization of the 
laptop-mode tools or the programs invoked by laptop-mode.

It would be good if this could be corrected in one of the next 
updates given the fact that this bug persists now for more than 
a year.

Thanks and best wishes,
Hans-Georg

As documented in https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/laptop-mode-
tools/#Eingabegeraete, one can configure laptop-mode-tools with

AUTOSUSPEND_USBTYPE_BLACKLIST=”usbhid”

IMO, this should be enabled by default.

[Bug 1603659] Re: Power Management: USB mouse and keyboard laggy and loosing events

2016-07-16 Thread Thomas Mayer
No, /etc/rc.local was untouched. The file was empty besides of an "exit
0".

/etc$ sudo fgrep -ril powertop *
/etc$ sudo fgrep -ril autotune *
both give an empty result.

I installed TLP again, which automatially removed package
"laptop-mode-tools".

Using powertop, I've set back the two USB devices to "Bad" again, just to see 
what TLP
does to it.

Before I started TLP, the output of "tlp-stat -u" was:

Bus 002 Device 004 ID 046a:0023 control = auto, autosuspend_delay_ms =
2000 -- Cherry GmbH CyMotion Master Linux Keyboard G230 (usbhid)
Bus 002 Device 003 ID 046d:c24c control = auto, autosuspend_delay_ms =
2000 -- Logitech, Inc. G400s Optical Mouse (usbhid)

Note that 2000 ms of autosuspend_delay is pretty much the time I
experienced for the devices to become unresponsive.

Then I started TLP with a

sudo tlp start

Now that TLP was started, the output of "tlp-stat -u" was:

TLP started in AC mode.
Bus 002 Device 004 ID 046a:0023 control = on,   autosuspend_delay_ms =
2000 -- Cherry GmbH CyMotion Master Linux Keyboard G230 (usbhid)
Bus 002 Device 003 ID 046d:c24c control = on,   autosuspend_delay_ms =
2000 -- Logitech, Inc. G400s Optical Mouse (usbhid)

Basically that means that TLP disables autosuspend in AC mode.
Both devices are working great, like the way they did with the
workaround using powertop after every reboot. With TLP enabled, everything 
still works after a reboot. I also can type in my login password without loss 
of the first characters.

Same for battery mode:
sudo tlp start
TLP started in battery mode.
tlp-stat -u
Bus 002 Device 004 ID 046a:0023 control = on,   autosuspend_delay_ms =  2000 -- 
Cherry GmbH CyMotion Master Linux Keyboard G230 (usbhid)
Bus 002 Device 003 ID 046d:c24c control = on,   autosuspend_delay_ms =  2000 -- 
Logitech, Inc. G400s Optical Mouse (usbhid)

Now that my computer had autosuspend enabled after a reboot (before I 
reinstalled TLP), which
package was responsible for that? laptop-mode-tools?

If laptop-mode-tools enabled autosuspend for input devices, even in AC
mode, that should be avoided with the behaviour I experienced. That
said, I think this issue is not related to the linux kernel at all, but
to one of the power saving tools.

2016-07-16 Thread linrunner
Hi,

a plain Ubuntu does not enable USB autosuspend for input devices. Maybe
you implemented something like 'powertop --autotune' in your rc.local?

I suggest you install tlp again (it's in the official repos now), start
it with

sudo tlp start

and attach the output of

tlp-stat -u

ps. upower is neither a replacement for TLP nor does it save battery
power.

[Bug 1603659] Re: Power Management: USB mouse and keyboard laggy and loosing events

2016-07-16 Thread Thomas Mayer
I did not post the correct devices in my previous comment.

The two affected devices are:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 046a:0023 Cherry GmbH CyMotion Master Linux Keyboard G230
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 046d:c24c Logitech, Inc. G400s Optical Mouse

Mouse and keyboard, respectively. Both connected with their standard USB
cable.

This issue is about USB only (not bluetooth related).

** Description changed:

  This issue is a regression after update to 16.04 (coming from 14.04). To
  my knowledge, I was using TLP together with 14.04, which got removed
  during the upgrade in favour of upower.
  
  Two devices behave unexpected reproducably after a fresh reboot:
  
- Bus 002 Device 005: ID 413c:8187 Dell Computer Corp. DW375 Bluetooth Module
  Bus 002 Device 004: ID 046a:0023 Cherry GmbH CyMotion Master Linux Keyboard 
G230
+ Bus 002 Device 003: ID 046d:c24c Logitech, Inc. G400s Optical Mouse
  
  It looks like a power management related issue. By default,
  - USB mouse pointer is invisible and mouse looses any event unless I press a 
mouse button (which also is executed in a dangerous manner at the last position 
of the invisible pointer)
  - USB keyboard is inactive unless I press a few keys. These first characters 
get lost in the output
  - This happens directly after reboot (e.g. first characters of password get 
lost, mouse is invisible).
  - After login, it still happens: After a few seconds of inactivity, mouse and 
keyboard are non-responsive again.
  - In addition, I also experience lost events without any delay from time to 
time
  - In addition, scrolling with the mouse is laggy in particular
  
  Most of these problems are gone as soon as I disable powersave in
  powertop for mouse and keyboard:
  
  Bad Automatische Bereitschaft für USB-Gerät G400s Optical Gaming Mouse 
[Logitech]
- Bad Automatische Bereitschaft für unbekanntes USB-Gerät 2-1.2 [046a:0023] 
   
+ Bad Automatische Bereitschaft für unbekanntes USB-Gerät 2-1.2 [046a:0023]
  
  The only remaining problem is laggy scrolling and sometimes loosing
  events like keyboard presses, but this could still be another issue.
  
  The powertop status of other USB devices does not have an effect on this
  workaround. However, the workaround via powertop is lost after next
  reboot.
  
  It also has no effect when changing USB-Ports or USB-Controllers. I tried
  - built-in USB 2.0 Ports of my DELL Latitude E5510 (1d6b:0002)
  - replicated USB 2.0 ports of my docking station PR02X (1d6b:0002)
  - PCMCIA USB 3.0 Express card (1d6b:0003)
  
  Accordingly, this issue is not related to particular USB
  controllers/hubs. Plus, as two non-related USB hardware devices are
  concerned, this issue also might not be related to particular USB
  devices, bat rather affect many USB devices.
  
  I don't experience any problems when using the built-in keyboard of the
  DELL Latitude E5510.
