Hi,

i have a problem with the new xorg and hal. What i did:


- emerge -uavD world on a amd64 (stable) machine
- delete all input stuff at the xorg.conf

thats it. I have no .fdi file or other stuff.



But some keys didnt work as expected e.g. down arrow, end-key...

lshal say about my keyboard

Code: Select all

udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46a_23_noserial_if0_logicaldev_input'
  info.addons.singleton = {'hald-addon-input'} (string list)
  info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.keyboard', 'input.keypad', 'input.keys', 'button'} (string list)
  info.category = 'input'  (string)
  info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46a_23_noserial_if0'  (string)
  info.product = 'HID 046a:0023'  (string)
  info.subsystem = 'input'  (string)
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46a_23_noserial_if0_logicaldev_input'  (string)
  input.device = '/dev/input/event5'  (string)
  input.originating_device = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46a_23_noserial_if0'  (string)
  input.product = 'HID 046a:0023'  (string)
  input.x11_driver = 'evdev'  (string)
  input.xkb.layout = 'us'  (string)
  input.xkb.model = 'evdev'  (string)
  input.xkb.rules = 'base'  (string)
  input.xkb.variant = ''  (string)
  linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event5'  (string)
  linux.hotplug_type = 2  (0x2)  (int)
  linux.subsystem = 'input'  (string)
  linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/input/input5/event5'  (string)
My layout is US, that should be fine. Any idea whats going wrong there?

Btw: if i do a setxkbmap us the broken keys work again o_0
Thanks for any help!

fame

I upgraded today, after 1.5.3 xorg went stable. Recompiled the kernel for evdev support, deleted dri USE flag, started hald (and put it into rc-update), re-merged the drivers found with "qlist -I -C x11-drivers/", moved aside my xorg.conf into xorg.conf.old, and it all just worked. Even the mouse wheel works.

Thanks to all who have put in the effort to make this happen.
"deleted dri USE flag"... You just deleted it in /etc/make.conf?

Thanks!

Yes. The update guide says it's not needed now. I have not yet done an

Code: Select all

emerge -u world
after deleting it, so there might possibly be trouble in store, but according to /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc, it merely enabled direct rendering, so it should be nobody's business except xorg's. From /var/log/Xorg.0.log it's clear that the direct rendering still gets loaded, so I doubt if I have lost anything.

@kingfame_147: check the output of

Code: Select all

hal-find-by-capability --capability input.keys | xargs hal-device
Perhaps, there's more than one device and something goes wrong.

Oh, and while it's not working, first see the output of 'setxkbmap -print',
then run simply 'setxkbmap' (no arguments) and check print output again.

@rickj: You've misinterpreted

Code: Select all

Due to the above change, the dri USE flag was dropped. Xorg will now always have OpenGL support unless USE=minimal is set.
That meant only 'drop dri use flag for x11-base/xorg-server', not drop it from 'make.conf':
that flag may still be needed for media-libs/mesa.

Oops - thanks VoidMage. I'll put it back in make.conf, and re-merge media-libs/mesa.

Edit - media-libs/mesa doesn't seem to care about the dri USE flag:

Code: Select all

#emerge -avq media-libs/mesa
[ebuild   R   ] media-libs/mesa-7.3-r1  USE="doc motif nptl -debug -pic -xcb" VIDEO_CARDS="radeon -intel -mach64 -mga -none -r128 -s3virge -savage -sis (-sunffb) -tdfx -trident -via"

Make sure you don't have a .xmodmap file. I had one and had to remove it. Once it was gone all my mouse buttons and the wheel just work. No xorg.conf and no fiddling with fdi files.

When I tried doing

Code: Select all

emerge -uDN world -a
the update would never show up. I had to directly go

Code: Select all

emerge -u xorg-serever
Has anyone else seen this? On my x86, updating world worked fine. I don't know if this means my PPC system has a problem or not. 8O Other updates seem to go through. The Gimp one just popped up a yesterday for 2.6. :?:

Hi all,

Most of the updade worked well for me. I just had to edit some file to get my keyboard layout (FR) working properly.

However, my Wacom Volito2 tablet does not work as exepected. (It worked well before the upgrade)

I have a dual screen setup and I would like the tablet to be contained only in screen 0, and to be in absolute mode
Instead of that, the pointer behaves like my mouse (relative mode, and goes in both screens)

Here is my Xorg.conf section that used to work :

Code: Select all

	Section "InputDevice"
 	  Driver        "wacom"
 	  Identifier    "stylus"
 	  Option        "Device"        "/dev/input/tablet-volito2-4x5"
	  Option        "Type"          "stylus"
 	  Option        "USB"           "on"
	  Option          "TVResolution"  "1280x960" 
	  Option "ScreenNo" "0" 
	  Option "PressCurve" "0,0,100,100" #linéaire
	EndSection
Anyone having an idea where to look at ?

Thanks
Linux, cause booting is for adding new hardware

Would you know how to get synaptics working again?

This is my /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-xinput-configuration.fdi:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">

<!-- Keyboard configuration -->
<device>
   <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keyboard">
   <merge key="input.x11_options.XkbModel" type="string">pc105</merge>
   <merge key="input.x11_options.XkbLayout" type="string">gb,el</merge>
   <merge key="input.x11_options.XkbOptions" type="strlist">grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll,compose:menu</merge>
</match>
</device>

<!-- touchpad -->
<device>
   <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
   <match key="info.product" contains="SynPS/2">
        <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">true</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.VertEdgeScroll" type="string">true</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.HorizEdgeScroll" type="string">true</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">true</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.ClickButton1" type="string">true</merge>
   </match>
   </match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
Horizontal and Vertical scrolling works again, but clicking, double clicking, selecting does not when using the touchpad. Is there anything missing from above?

EDIT: The error in the synaptics entries was in these two parameters - they should have been integers:

Code: Select all

       <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
       <merge key="input.x11_options.ClickButton1" type="string">1</merge>
My old xorg.conf used to contain:

@MickKi: as stated many times in this thread,
for synaptics driver, the defaults have changed
- to get the same behavior, you need more tweaking.

And unless you've got a very good reason to do
otherwise, let XkbModel stay 'evdev'.
Also, XkbOptions are string, not strlist.

kingfame_147: would you happen to have an old .Xmodmap that you've copied from a different computer where you used it to map the "Windoze(TM)" keys to be Super? Because I had that file, and it was remapping Up, Down, PgDn, and End to the keysyms that were correct for the keys that used to have the keycodes those those keys now have.
