https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230919 ------- Comment #16 from felix.rommel@web.de 2007-02-05 14:43 MST ------- Aspire: 1. CorePointer -> switchable SendCoreEvents -> NOT switchable It doesn't matter if external USB mouse or touchpad is CorePointer or SendCoreEvents. 2. SendCoreEvents -> Touchpad not switchable SendCoreEvents -> External USB mouse not switchable and if you click a few times on left mouse button you get the same effect as on clicking the right mouse button (for example you get context menu for both buttons -> mouse behaves crazy) * Thinkpad: 1. CorePointer -> Trackpoint Switchable SendCoreEvents -> Not switchable device not in xorg.conf -> not switchable It doesn't matter if Trackpad or Touchpad is CorePointer. Corepointer is always switchable but not SendCoreEvents or the device which is not in xorg.conf. I think there is a problem when you add 3 devices in your xorg.conf - X did not start. Maybe it's a limitation of X server!? What works: CorePointer Trackpad -> Switchable Touchpad not in xorg.conf -> Switchable USB/PS2 mouse not in xorg.conf -> Switchable 2. SendCoreEvents -> Trackpad goes behaves crazy (see *) SendCoreEvents -> Touchpad not switchable SendCoreEvents -> External USB mouse behaves crazy (see *) Result: Even if my external PS2/USB mouse is damaged, switching to left handed mouse for Trackpad AND Touchpad on Thinkpad does NOT work. Trackpad and Touchpad are integrated my notebook - maybe it's not common for Thinkpads but Z61m has both. I think it's a Xorg problem - under Ubuntu switching to left handed mode doesn't work, too. Totally crazy that one configuration works for my Thinkpad (Trackpad in xorg.conf, Touchpad and external USB/PS2 mouse not in xorg.conf) and not for Aspire, when only inserting Touchpad in xorg.conf and leaving other input device out of xorg.conf. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
