All,
On my new 13.1 install on my tosiba laptop, I am getting strange behavior out of the optical mouse. MS inteli-mouse - normal 3 button + wheel. When the mouse is lifter off the pad, the cursor begins jumping around quite noticeably. It shakes up and down about 1/2 to 1 inch vertically as it works itself down the page at a fairly rapid pace.
For some reason it looks like the Y-axis goes nuts when the mouse is lifted. This makes it quite difficult to reposition the mouse on the pad. Lifting the mouse about 1/2 inch off the pad and the cursor takes off like a rocket to the bottom of the screen.
Can anybody else confirm? I also have the synaptics touchpad driver 'syndaemon` loaded to disable the touchpad while typing. I have used syndaemon for years and never had this type of issue before. Strange.
Does anyone recall how to capture the X and Y axis values? It would be nice to grab data in the event this becomes a bug report.
Hi David, Good to see you back on the list. I have a fairly new Toshiba that does not show this behavior. But I use Logitech optical mice. If you have a different brand optical you would be able to test if it is the mouse or a setting somewhere in KDE that is causing the problem. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
