I asked this on the Ubuntu forums but go no bites. Since it deals with an X input device I figured someone here might have more insight as to where begin looking for the source of the problem.
Laptop : Sony VAIO VPCF111FX Ubuntu versions tried: 10.04 LTS x64 and 10.10 x64 Problem: The exact center column of the touchpad is dead in a weird way. Any clicking action on it does nothing. Clicking outside of the center column works fine. Initiating cursor movement from the center column and moving it up and down produces no cursor movement, however, if I then move outside of the center column then movement works and even continues to work when I return to the center column and move it up and down. Initiating cursor movement from outside the center column and moving into the center column and then up and down produces correct cursor movement. I'm pretty sure the touchpad itself is fine because it worked flawlessly in Win7 before I nuked it and re-installed with 10.04 LTS. I installed 10.10 on a new partition in the hopes that touchpad issue would go away, but it remains. What could possibly create such a strange response? --Pedro _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
