Ubuntu / Apple :: Trackpad Freezes After Sleep On MBP

Jul 24, 2011

I've recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my MBP4,1. Whenever I wake the laptop from sleep the trackpad seems to freeze up. Everything else works - I can use the keyboard to switch through programs and interact with them, but I can't move the trackpad at all.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Trackpad Not Working After Waking Up From Sleep On Natty?

May 15, 2011

I have had a issue with the trackpad not working (cursor does not move, does not click) after I wake up my MacBook Pro 4,1 from sleep. I am pretty sure this is an X issue and not a driver issue because if I log out the trackpad works again. This is also sporadic. Sometimes it occurs, sometimes it does not. Is there some configuration I need to set to fix this?

Ubuntu / Apple :: 10.10 Trackpad On MacBook7,1?

Jan 20, 2011

I tried Ubuntu 10.10 on my MacBook, but I had a few problems. They, surprisingly, were not the problems most people have.

1) The trackpad had the "Tap to Click" setting on, but I couldn't find out how to change it.

2) The clicking was only right click.

I also had a few other problems that I will mention, but you aren't obligated to answer them:

1) I couldn't find my wireless network.

2) BootCamp isn't partitioning, so I can't really install Ubuntu.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Magic Trackpad Not Auto Connecting?

May 23, 2011

I have an HP 6735s laptop that I have connected an Apple Wireless Keyboard and Apple Magic Trackpad to via bluetooth on 11.04.

When I login the keyboard automatically connects via bluetooth (once the gnome-bluetooth applet boots), however, I need to manually go into the applet and click connect for the trackpad. I can then run a script to start touchegg.

How I do set up the trackpad to auto-connect? I am guessing the built-in trackpad on the laptop is overriding it?

Ubuntu / Apple :: Trackpad Not Working On Macbook Pro 5,3 After Update To 11?

May 25, 2011

I have a dual-booting MacBook 5,3 which I was running 10 on with no trouble. I just upgraded to 11, and the trackpad doesn't work at all - no clicks, no movement. I've restarted several times - no change. Any ideas as to what I can do?I did play with my drivers a bit in 10 to get the trackpad to behave a bit more smoothly - but that was a while ago, and I'm not sure exactly what I can do.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Trackpad Disabled On Macbook Pro 7 , 1 / Resolve This?

Sep 1, 2011

I am using a 64-bit version of Ubuntu 10.10 on my Intel Macbook Pro 7,1, and I am having trouble with the trackpad. At first, it was working fine. But for some reason now, it only works about a minute after I start into Ubuntu, and then the cursor movement with the trackpad is disabled. However, I can still do mouse clicks with the trackpad, but to move the cursor I have to use a USB mouse. I am not sure what's causing this. I followed the instructions for installing Ubuntu on a Macbook Pro, so all the correct drives should be installed.

Ubuntu / Apple :: No Wireless Networks Shown - Trackpad Not Working

Jan 10, 2010

I recently used BootCamp on my MacBook (2.1) to partition my hdd and install Ubuntu (karmic), and I am having trouble with the wireless connection. On the mac partition it works fine, but on Ubuntu there are no wireless networks shown in the network-dialog. Previously I had only a Linux-partition on the same machine, and this was not a problem. Also the trackpad does not work at all. Does anyone know what to do about the network connection? Also I should mention that I first installed the AMD64-version of Ubuntu, which worked fine even though my macbook uses intel. Im tempted to just go back to the amd-version, any views on that?

Ubuntu / Apple :: Keyboard And Trackpad Not Working Properly After Upgrade

May 6, 2010

My keboard was working perfectly (backlight, inverse FN) until upgrade from karmic to lucid. Now neither backlight neither inverting FN (in pommed.conf) works- backlight is always off, FN is default OSX-like.
Trackpad worked "almost superb" (missing click with one finger and drag with another!!) but after upgrade (=no mode udev) event number changes with every reboot so I cannot put configuration based on /dev/input/eventX to Xorg.conf. How can I make it have the same number after reboot now?

Debian :: KDE Freezes On Wake From Sleep (Jessie)

Jun 10, 2015

I have installed Debian 8.1 with KDE desktop on Lenovo t431s with intel HD4000 graphics.

When using it with dual monitor configuration, I experience the problem when I put system to sleep (by closing the lid), then remove the external monitor cable (from miniDP port) and then try to wake system from sleep. The login screen freezes and I am unable to move the mouse or type in credentials. In case I had music player running I can hear the music after system wake , but it shutters while playing.

This does not happen on some other distributions, but the problem is that I very much like my current setup and I would like to fix this problem and keep it.

I do not know if this problem is due to KDE or KDM or it's Debian base.

Ubuntu / Apple :: 11.10 Live CD On IMac G5 Freezes?

Jun 2, 2011

I have a 20" 2.0 GHz iMac G5 Rev B and I'm trying to boot the live CD on it. I used to have a small ubuntu partition before on this computer, but I repartitioned it to OS X only when I left it as a family computer. I had no problems with it back then (I think it was 10.04). I've tried booting with several options. Booting by typing in live or live-powerpc64 get the computer to a blue screen with the top bar and cursor, before the cursor stops moving, the computer freezes, and the fans kick up to full. Trying with video=ofonly gets the new left bar thingy to show but freezes as soon as I try to click anything.

Ubuntu / Apple :: 11.04 And 10.04 On ILamp IMac Freezes On Boot?

I tried to boot live Ubuntu (using 11.04 daily build) and 10.04 on my G4 iMac (the so-called iLamp) 15" but it freezed on boot. I tried using both the "live" and the "live video=ofony" options with no difference.The result is always a white or blank screen (randomly). With 10.04 I obtained a little bit different result: a yellow screen!These are the main characteristics of my iMac (obtained with the system profiler):

Ubuntu / Apple :: Finder Freezes When Deleting Files Across OS X Network?

Apr 16, 2011

I have my MacBook 5,2 hooked up to an Ubuntu 10.10 'server' via ethernet.

I've installed netatalk and avahi-daemon on the server. I've disallowed Spotlight (OS X's search utility) from indexing the networked drives.

Everything works as it should, however, from time to time when I delete files that reside on the Ubuntu server from my MacBook, Finder (OS X's file manager) will freeze. I can kill the Finder process. I then try to restart it from the Terminal from the command line but I get the following error message printed:

Code:
LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app.

The only solution I know of at present is to reboot the MacBook.

So I guess I need to know what my options are here. Is it better for me to use SMB? Or is there a config file I can alter? I have a feeling this bug may be linked to certain disallowed characters in file or pathnames as it doesn't happen all the time, although this is just a hunch.

Ubuntu :: Disable Trackpad While Typing On Mac?

May 23, 2011

I'm having trouble typing in ubuntu on my macbook because my palms sometimes touch the trackpad while I'm typing. I've seen a ton of posts about how to disable the trackpad when a USB mouse is connected, but I just want to write a scripthat I can run to unconditionally disable the trackpad and turn it back on. I don't care if it requires an extra keystroke or even if I have to write 2 scripts - one to turn it off and another to turn it on.

Ubuntu :: Trackpad Does Not Work When Desktop Loads

Sep 4, 2010

So I have used ubuntu for about 2 years now, and this has never been an issue. Basically my trackpad(touchpad) on my laptop stops working when the wallpaper and other gui aspects load. The mouse works in windows and works in ubuntu for a few seconds while the screen is still black and gui is loading. So I know ubuntu does know it exists.

This problem occured after watching a movie and ubuntu froze up. Also while watching the movie I had the trackpad disabled, which might have something to do with my problem. (I have a hpdv6500 which has a button on the trackpad to disable it. I did no software tricks or hacks to do it). After resetting my computer the problem existed and persists every time I turn it on and off. So does anyone have any experience with such a problem or maybe how to reset the settings of the mouse?

Ubuntu :: Keyboard And Trackpad Don't Respond / Solution For This?

Oct 27, 2010

My Thinkpad R32 keyboard & trackpad will not work when booted off the HD with 9.04, I can plug in an external USB keyboard & that works fine.
If I start the laptop from a Ubuntu LiveCd the keyboard & trackpad work fine.
There must be some system file disabling the onboard keyboard, I have used Keyboard Preferences to try different keyboard models.

Red Hat :: Mouse Properties Has No Trackpad Info In It?

Apr 5, 2011

I am having issues with the gpu drivers and the touchpad, both of which seem to be traced back to xorg.conf.I can set the proper resolution using nvidia-settings, but it resets to 800x600 on restart no matter what I do. I have used the gui to save, I have tried nvidia-xconfig, and I have tried to just editing the xorg myself, but it always goes back.I am having even worse problems with the trackpad. I downloaded and installed the synaptics package, but nothing I do changes the trackpad settings. Mouse properties has no trackpad info in it.How do you properly configure resolution and trackpad settings on rhel?

Hardware :: Lost Sound And Laptop Trackpad After Ubuntu Upgrade?

Dec 10, 2009

Everything was working when I was on Ubuntu 9.04 but after I upgraded to 9.10 via their upgrade utility. The upgrade failed at the last point of installation (when it tried to install daemon I think). Nevertheless, after the reboot I was on ubuntu 9.10. But the sound stopped working as well as the mouse trackpad on my laptop. I remember that during the installation when it asked if I wanted to keep the old sound configuration file, I clicked yes. So is there I way to fix/reinstall the sound driver and the tackpad? In the sound hardware setting window, no device is listed. I'm pretty sure that my hardwares work on ubuntu 9.10 as the sound and trackpad work fine using the ubuntu 9.10 live CD.

Debian Multimedia :: Pasting Not Possible With Multitouch Trackpad?

Sep 25, 2015

I switch over from old laptop to a new one. This one has now a multitouch touchpad wich annoys me. With my old laptop i could select a text and paste it with middle mouse button or with 2 buttons enabled from the touchpad.

Now i moved my existing ssd drive from my old laptop to my new one, so the software and configuration is the same.

I can pasting nothing anymore by pushing in left&right on the touchpad. Due the multitouch i presume? Copy/Paste aint working anymore with urxvt. I would like to get this behaviour back because it's plain simple, fast and works almost everywhere.

C/P Still works with the middle mouse buttons but i don't use a mouse all the time.

How to get pasting work with multitouch?

Fedora Hardware :: Random Clicks From Trackpad On 12?

May 20, 2010

I just installed 64 bit Fedora 12 on a Dell Latitude E6510. When I am typing, the cursor sometimes jumps to a random place. This is very annoying, especially while coding.

This was not a problem with Fedora 11 live or Windows 7 (dual boot).
