[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 508752] Re: [gm45] Mouse moves erratically after executing xrandr --panning
Yet another update: After a kernel update from 2.6.32 to 2.6.35-22-generic, the nomodeset option is completely broken (X-server cannot set any reasonable mode any more) Now, I had to give up panning completely. In my current setup, I am using --scale on the smaller screen. This makes it just barely usable but at least good enough to recover without the large screen connected. -- [gm45] Mouse moves erratically after executing xrandr --panning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Indeed - the nomodeset kernel option fixes this problem but it causes a number of different problems (essentially breaking KDE desktop effects). -- [gm45] Mouse moves erratically after executing xrandr --panning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 508752] Re: [gm45] Mouse moves erratically after executing xrandr --panning
Reopening the report: The problem occurs on my system as well. I am running a Dell Latitude E4300 with an external monitor connected. The integrated intel VGA chipset is used with the xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.9.1-3ubuntu5 driver. The dual screen is set in panning mode with the following command: xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1600x1200 --pos 0x0 --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800 --pos 0x0 --panning 1600x1200//100/100/100/100 The effect is as described in the update of the bug description: The mouse works nice and smooth except in the moment when the smaller screen pans. At that time, the mouse is observed to move erratically on the larger screen, jumping back and forth by perhaps 20 pixels. I have yet to try whether the nomodeset kernel option fixes the problem. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- [gm45] Mouse moves erratically after executing xrandr --panning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
