I have a KeySonic 2.4Ghz Wireless Keyboard with Integrated TouchPad which I am trying to get to work.
Now there are some reviews saying it works straight out the box on Linux. This was almost the case for me.
The keyboard works straight away but the touch pad doesn't work at all not even the mouse buttons
I am running CentOS release 5.3 (Final) Kernel 2.6.18-128.el5
I would really appreciate any advice at all, I have checked the output of: cat /proc/bus/input/devices
Which gives:

I've been searching for over two hours and I've made multiple adjustments to xorg.conf with no luck. Apparently, I'm more of a newbie than I thought.Would someone be so kind as to give me a hand?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI know questions of the form "wireless not working on <blank>" abound, but here is another! I can't cut and paste since I don't have a connection on the computer I am having trouble with but I will paraphrase the best I can.
lspci output:
0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel ... PRO/wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
lsmod output (relavent line):
cfg80211 33680 3 iwlagn, iwlcore, mac80211
iwconfig shows wlan0 up and running, and iwlist scanning shows the router. I used to be able to just run dhcpcd wlan0 and connect, but now I get a
"timed out waiting for a valid DHCP server response"
Same deal running /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf (which might be the new way Slack connects to things).
Not sure if it's important, but I have a little indicator light on my laptop that tells me if wireless is running. Before I try dhcpcd, the light is on. After it times out, the light goes out and I have to redo everything (ifconfig wlan0 up etc....) in order to get the light back on.
I am getting a problem to run hugin 2010.2.0 in Slackware 13.1. After I installed all require programs (I hope that), I run hugin, but the error message show that:
bash-4.1# hugin Fatal Error: Mismatch between the program and library build versions detected. The library used 2.8 (no debug,Unicode,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,wx containers,compatible with 2.6),
and your program used 2.8 (no debug,Unicode,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,wx containers,compatible with 2.4,compatible with 2.6)." Is there anyone know how to fix this problem?
I have just reinstalled slackware on my old p4 3.2 box clean install formatted hard drive no other packages installed.is there something seriously changed from slack 10 to slack 13.1 ?? or do i suffer from C.R.S ( cant remember s***)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am playing with SalixOS which is supposed to be entirely compatible with Slack. I've never put Slack proper on this laptop. It's run Ubuntu and Mandriva both and the volume wheel always works. It does not seem to be recognized in Salix. I figure the fix will be the same in Salix as Slackware so I'm asking here. The laptop is an A205 Toshiba Satellite.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy touchpad just stopped working recently. It works in the framebuffer console, cat /dev/input/mice gives sensible output, X -retro shows a moving cross and it is completely functional during the gdm login prompt. But for some reason, it just stops responding halfway through the login process (roughly at the same time as gnome complains about my old laptop battery, if that is any help.) I run Debian Squeeze with Linux 2.6.32-5-686. The touchpad is a Synaptics PS/2 pad according to Xorg.
I do not understand the problem, actually. X seems unwilling to talk to my touchpad for some reason. When I run X manually from single-user mode, it complains that it cannot talk to my touchpad, but it works in the -retro test mode. As soon as gnome kicks in however, it stops working. synclient -l gives sensible output.
My external USB mouse works just fine.
I always edit /etc/default/grub to fix my touchpad issue and make it work on Ubuntu based distros. Recently I have installed Fedora15 and I tried to do the same work on it but I couldn't find the file. Do you know where is it in Fedora?

I just put ubuntu 10.10 on my HP Pavilion dv9000, and it's been working well for the past few days, but just recently the touch pad stopped working, even when it's on. My usb connected mouse works. What should I do?! I need this resolved now.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI initially had W7 starter on this netbook, changed to linux mint 8 very quickly (as fedora seems to have bricked my old laptop ), and eventually decided to try fedora again. However, unlike on LM8, the touchpad and Wireless LAN do not work.
Netbook Model- Acer Aspire One D250-1515
Wireless Card- Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter
Touchpad- unknown (how can I find this out?)
These two issues kind of make the netbook rather useless as a mobile device.
My hardware is a Gateway LT2104u netbook.Bought it today, took it out the box and installed the netbook version of Ubuntu.Now here is the problem.The touchpad works fine. I am able to move the mouse all over the screen, the keyboard works find too. The problem is with the mouse click. The clicks are recognized when I am in the 'overview screen'. For example I can click on firefox and it opens. However once firefox is open it does not respond to any clicks. Even clicks to close firefox.
I push Alt+f4 to close the program and then I can click into any other (or the original) programs, but once inside the problem replicates.The problem was present in the 'live cd' during install as well.Does anybody know what might cause this? The whole netbook is useless at this point since I need to click to pretty much do anything in most applications (the Terminal program is one of the few exceptions )
Laptop is of the Lenovo 3000 Y500 series, 32bit processor. Touchpad does not respond during the installation.Worried if the Touchpad won't work even after the installation..Currently using Windows7.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to setup X on an old netbook to act kinda like a small backup server for a few VPS servers i own, Anyway so i decided to install X + openbox + Other Programs together to create a basic desktop that i could vnc into if i wish or could use from the main box.
(Heres the problem)
When X starts it says it cannot queary the touchpad and when X loads i have no mouse. The first few times i started X I had no problems. I've looked on a few websites but i cant seem to get the touchpad to work again, Any Ideas?
X Error:
Touchpad:
Title says it all really. I can move the mouse around but can't select stuff by tapping the pad. I have synaptics installed which works in Arch and Slackware. Not in F12 though.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to -current (using slackpkg), my touchpad scrolling won't work.I remember that this had solved my problem previous time and in fact, after upgrade I have changed nothing (since this file already existed there). When I check the /usr/share/hal/fdi/ policy/ 10osvendor/ directory, I see that no "11-x11-synaptics.fdi" file was present. I just copied the file from /etc/hal/fdi/policy into this directory, but this did not help. Can somebody guide me through this?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI just installed Debian on my new VAIO VPCS13. It seems to be working for the most part, except it does not recognize my Synaptics touchpad at all.
I've had Ubuntu installed on this computer before and the mousepad worked fine. This being Debian on a new-generation computer, it makes me think that Debian just probably hasn't released the update yet.
This weekend I did a distribution upgrade to Karmic, but it didn't go very well. Upon reboot, I see a white ubuntu logo on a black screen. I hear the speakers pop, and the screen flashes several times, sorta like the blank screen is maybe changing video modes. After a while I see what I think is garbled text but is unreadable, and it looks like I can log on even though I can't read anything. Now, booting into recovery mode gets me to a readable prompt. There are no upgrades to apply. Typing gdm from here gets me to the desktop just fine. Also when booting, if I choose an earlier kernel the system boots fine also, except the touchpad doesn't work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx LTS. My laptop is an HP Pavilion TX1210AU (TX1000 series). After disabling the touchpad using the toggle button and reenabling it again, it stopped working. I tried restarting my laptop and the mouse worked again only up to the Login Screen. After logging in to my account, the mouse froze again. I tried making a new account and tried logging into it (I'm using it now) and it's now fixed. Does Ubuntu change any user settings everytime the touchpad toggle (on/off) button is switched? Maybe I could just reenable it myself.
