Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
Installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS desktop on my new Sony Vio VPCF126FM and touchpad is not detected. This problem fist occurred during install. The touchpad has never worked, from booting from the live CD, installing Ubuntu, and then updating Ubuntu. If I attempt to run System/Preferences/Touchpad the following error message results: GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics I can not find the xorg.conf or XF86Config files. Sudo tpconfig results with the following message. Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). If I plug in a USB mouse, the USB mouse works. There is not response from touching the touchpad or touchpad buttons. The touchpad works under windows. I have attached the dmesg file that the following web page instructed me to do: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#generalinfo ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.2.2-1ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-24.42-generic 2.6.32.15+drm33.5 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Sun Sep 12 16:17:09 2010 DkmsStatus: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) MachineType: Sony Corporation VPCF126FM ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic root=UUID=0b68acde-1b6c-40d8-a971-0e72a2ba7b25 ro quiet splash ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics dmi.bios.date: 05/31/2010 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: R1110Y6 dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A dmi.board.name: VAIO dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.board.version: N/A dmi.chassis.asset.tag: N/A dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvrR1110Y6:bd05/31/2010:svnSonyCorporation:pnVPCF126FM:pvrC605W413:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: VPCF126FM dmi.product.version: C605W413 dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation glxinfo: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory system: distro: Ubuntu codename: lucid architecture: i686 kernel: 2.6.32-24-generic ** Affects: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 lucid -- Touchpad is not detected on Sony VPCF126FM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/636638 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 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
