Hello, Seth It's me again, still trying to get good diagnostic output for the driver. I have 2 files attached here, as you ask for.
In the previous post, I said that sometimes the mouse flies off to the top left, and you asked if perhaps I'm touching the left part of the touchpad. I've been checking. Definitely, I'm not touching the left side. That still happens intermittently. And here's the weirdest part. If I plug in a USB mouse and keyboard, sometimes the cursor flies about wild up to the left, even if I don't touch the touchpad at all. Just using the mouse does that. The other weird problem is periodic "sluggishness". Sometimes touching the pad just doesn't move the pointer much. Sometimes it will stay sluggish for a long while and I modprobe the psmouse to shake it loose. But sometimes it goes away after 5 or 10 seconds. I don't see any pattern in it. I've been trying to get diagnostic output for those moments. I change to the VT1 and create the diagnostic files, but I fear the output will not help you because the sluggishness may be cured by the act of hitting Alt-Ctl-F1. I mean, by the time I get there and run input-events, I can't say for sure if the mouse is still sluggish or not. But I just have to rely on your best guess! On Debian, my kernel is 3.0.0-1-amd64 and the psmouse patch is version 10. ** Attachment added: "input-events diagnstics for psmouse" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/550625/+attachment/2591485/+files/psmouseDiagnosis.zip -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
