[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 588027] Re: [arrandale] Xserver occasionally crashes with Intel mobile graphics (i5-430M CPU)

2010-06-15 Thread Eric Drechsel
Jakob, the error on switch to VT with "bad file descriptor" is reported
in #576336, and seems distinct from your first report (with "invalid
argument")

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 242590] Re: udev rules should be installed by default

2010-05-05 Thread Eric Drechsel
great job Soren! It's nice to have a unified driver, much easier to
support etc.

i was just looking through the evdev and evtouch code and trying to
understand if evtouch has some sort of right-click emulation via
LONG_TOUCH, which is the only other thing I would miss in evdev
(although it might not be that usable anyway)

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 557923] Re: calibration utility is missing for touchscreen

2010-05-05 Thread Eric Drechsel
The correct calibration program I think is xinput_calibrator [1]

[1] http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xinput_calibrator

It is simple and usable, actively maintained, works with a number of
drivers, and has both an X11 and GTK version.

If you'd like to try it out, clone and compile the X11 version (the GTK
version has lots of build deps). A good first step would be to make a
PPA. I will try to get to this, unless somebody else wants to jump on
it.

The deb package should probably contain a wrapper script which catches
the output and places it in a script, something like

  /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90xinput_calibrator_${devicename}

(another option is udev but that seems wrong, unless ubuntu devs have a
policy decision)

i have been using evdev for a few releases now, on a variety of fujitsu
and panasonic notebooks. it seems to do everything evtouch does, so I'd
vote to close this.

2010-03-10 Thread Eric Drechsel
Just a follow-up on Soren's comment, I have been testing
xinput_calibrator [1], it is excellect, with a goal of supporting
calibration of all drivers, and export to udev, xorg, xinput command,
hal. This should be integrated in Ubuntu.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 442553] Re: evtoch calibration does not consistently work

2009-10-18 Thread Eric Drechsel
Actually, the issue is that the init.d script is being run *after* gdm
starts (restarting gdm makes the touchscreen work). This is tricky
since:

   1. gdm and hal have been moved to upstart (/etc/init/)
   2. script must be run after hal but before gdm 

I think that the calibration wrapper script needs to be updated to
output a .fdi file into /etc/hal/fdi/policy. It would have the same
effect as the script, except it would be automatically picked up by hal.
This is simple enough that I can write a patch. Hopefully it can be put
into karmic updates.

Confirmed, Panasonic CF-T2. Calibration works after restarting X, but
isn't used on the next boot. Running

sudo service xserver-xorg-input-evtouch start
sudo service gdm restart

applies the calibration. This service should be started at boot but
isn't?
