kernel upgrade - touchpad unexpected behaviour
in [Slackware]
|
From: .Martin. on 6 May 2010 08:32 Hi, Today I upgraded the kernel in my slackware64-current from 32.5 to 33.3 and installed binary nvidia driver again. The problem is that the left touchpad button started working in the most unexpected way. It tends to close firefox tabs, sometimes (when clicked somewhere in firefox it redirects firefox to the previous page and many other examples of weird behaviour. In Konsole, when clicked, it pastes URL to some websites that I visited a few minutes ago. It's a HP Pavilion tx1000 laptop. I've never experienced anything like that on this laptop with slackware or any other distro. I guess it's a question of the kernel, isn't it? I did xorgsetup. Relevant bits of my xorg.conf ,---- | Section "ServerLayout" | | # The Identifier line must be present | # Each Screen line specifies a Screen section name, and optionally | # the relative position of other screens. The four names after | # primary screen name are the screens to the top, bottom, left and right | # of the primary screen. In this example, screen 2 is located to the | # right of screen 1. | # Each InputDevice line specifies an InputDevice section name and | # optionally some options to specify the way the device is to be | # used. Those options include "CorePointer", "CoreKeyboard" and | # "SendCoreEvents". | Identifier "Simple Layout" | Screen "Screen 1" 0 0 | InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer" | InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" | EndSection `---- ,---- | | Section "InputDevice" | | Identifier "Mouse1" | Driver "mouse" | Option "Protocol" "PS/2" | # The mouse device. The device is normally set to /dev/mouse, | Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" | # Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" | EndSection `---- Thanks for your time. -- regards ..Martin.
