[Bug 381745] New: touchpad can't move mouse pointer to second screen
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381745 Summary: touchpad can't move mouse pointer to second screen Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=209173) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=209173) xorg.conf After updating to 11.0 beta1, I have a very interesting problem on my laptop. You probably remember my setup: radeon driver, laptop + external TFT in Xinerama setup. The problem: When I use the Synaptics touchpad, I can use the mouse pointer around on the laptop display, but _not_ to the second screen. Fortately, my USB mouse can move the mouse pointer to the second screen. Even more interesting: When the pointer is on the second screen, it can be moved there with the touchpad. But as soon as I move it back to the laptop display, it is "imprisoned" there again. I'll attach xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log. If you need more information or want me to test something, just ask. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I noticed that you're using a Xinerama configuration. Maybe it works with a MergedFB configuration (AFAIK the default since a long time now)
sax2 -r -b /usr/share/sax/profile/Radeon_DualHead_DriverOptions
This is the default, when you enable Dualhead Mode in SaX2. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

1) radeon/Xinerama --> Xserver crashes (No, I won't debug this. We no longer support this setup since some years now.)
OK, understandable - however this config still works on my laptop (11.0 beta3plus) except the imprisoned mouse pointer.
2) radeon/MergedFB --> works
From the synaptics point of view: yes - but bug 306691 reappears...
3) radeonrandr12/xrandr --> works
I haven't tested this driver yet.
Please switch to radeon/MergedFB or give the radeonrandr12 driver a try.
I'll try the radeonrandr12 driver. In case it doesn't fix the scrollable screen, you'll see a new bugreport ;-) BTW: Would using the ATI binary driver be an option? To make it more difficult: My graphics card is only supported by the old binary driver, which means I would need the patch to fake the X.org version (which was in the buildservice packages a year ago) and of course some luck regarding compatibility with the latest X.org version... (yes, I know that this would be completely unsupported.)
It seems sax2 has been fixed meanwhile.
Yes, it creates a working config file for 2) by default. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
