Ubuntu :: Tecra M7 Stylus Directions After Screen Rotation
Oct 21, 2010
I have a slight problem with setting of a stylus in my Tecra m7. It works fine when screen is in default position, but when I rotate the screen to vertical (left/CCW) touchpad and stylus input does not change so when I move it up it it goes right ^^'
xinput goes like this:
Code:
I already tried few .sh's from this forum archives but it didn't seem to work. I disabled driver for graphic card, because recommended version showed only violet screen when starting system and older version does not support rotation. I use Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome.
I have a Toshiba Tecra M3 laptop with a resolution of 1024 X 768 and a Nvidia GeForce Go 6600 TE/6200 TE graphics adapter build in, on to which I want to add an external Dell E196FP monitor with a resolution of 1280 X 1024 pixels. I have installed the Nvidia VIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 173.14.22 driver and X server application, but when I go in to the application by "System" -> "Monitors" I get the following message: "It appears that your graphics driver does not support the necessary extensions to use this tool. Do you want to use your graphics driver vendor's tool instead?", to which I answer yes.
In here, I go to "X Server display configuration", and "Detect displays". Here both displays (the Dell and the build-in Toshiba) is shown, but I do not know what setting to chose under "Configure", where I have 3 options:Disabled Separate X screen TwinView I want the same screen image on both displays - almost like a projector, but I can for the life of me not get it to work.
I have a big LCD screen.I make it 90 degrees retated to play games .But I want to know :if I can get rotation in boot up? I'm using Fedora 12 in KDE. My screen display driver is Intel . I think can write something into /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make it,or write into KDE's init script /usr/bin/startkde ( if there is a command like"rotate 90",then I can write it here).
I have an HP Pavilion tx2000 tablet, wich is working perfectly in Ubuntu 10.04. The touch and the stylus works out of box, and i'm using the script that Favux has posted to rotate my screen and i've installed the wacomrotate daemon, wich is working too. Now, I've two questions: How to calibrate it? The stylus is ok, but the touch isn't calibrated. In Karmic, I was using wacomcpl and xsetwacom, but neither of them detect my tablet now (in 9.10, Hal was used to detect the tablet, now it's xserver-xorg-input-wacom).
[code]...
It's possible to set up the automatic screen rotation, like in Windows (the screen rotates automaticaly in tablet position)?
Recently installed ubuntu on my gateway m275 tablet alongside windows xp tablet. Everything, including the stylus/pen without any poking around. However, I'm having trouble getting the screen orientation to rotate.
If I go to system-preferences-monitors, the only option for rotation is "normal".
I just installed ubuntu 10.04.02 on to my tablet, aside from the dreaded intel video problem. Install went ok, but I'm finding now. That when I rotate the screen, the touch screen isn't adjusting to match. I'm not really ubuntu savvy.
I just replaced my older monitor with a slightly newer, much nicer Dell 1905FP. I need to have it rotated, but I have no clue how to rotate it. I have seen several xorg.conf modifications that are supposed to work for some of the nvidia drivers, but nothing for the generic radeon driver. The radio buttons in SaX2 are grayed out as well. How do I set up X11 to rotate my display? Preferably without installing the other ATi driver, as I have tried before to switch to that one, and have been unsucessfull.
I have been trying hard to configure wizardpen for my ubuntu laptop.wed abletSetupWizardpen link for the info. Still it doesn't work. When I put stylus pen on the tablet, mouse pointer goes to the top left corner of the screen and stay there. Not sure what is going wrong.
The three directions media player has anyone used it I can't install it,who haved installed,please make a .deb package and give it to me (koreagrace@163.com).
I have a laptop connected to the internet through wifi, and a desktop connected directly to the router. I can trasnfer files of any size, with scp, from the desktop to the laptop; on the other hand, I can transfer small files (a 4,0K file, for example), but not files with some tens of megabytes, from the laptop to the desktop.
When I try to transfer a big file, the transmission starts at normal speed (around 2 mb/s), and then it slows down, and the message "stalled" appears where the remaining time was.
I reinstalled windows, which wiped out my boot partition. I then booted to a live CD, to attempt to reinstall GRUB. However the usual method and directions aren't working.
I am using TOSHIBA Tecra A8 notebook and i have install Ubuntu 10.04. However sound is not working. Is there any sound drivers for TOSHIBA Tecra A8 and it's version is : PTA83E-01D023AR.
I had Ubuntu for awhile, now I installed Fedora12, I'm trying to follow directions to install a program from source code (tar.gz file) I have the February 2010 issue of Linux Format, and am trying to follow it step by step. I copied gnurobbo off their disk to my desk top, which copied it. Then I did the cd command, then I did the ls command and it didn't show me anything but a line saying desktop and a few other things like pictures movies etc. so I did cd gnurobbo-0.64 and it says no such file. I have been trying this for a few times and I think I'm going crazy.
I had FC11 installed on a Toshiba Tecra A4 and when I upgraded via dvd, the system "hangs" after finishing the last gray bar(the bar flickers a lot at the last), keyboard ctrl-alt-del will reboot. I had used noapic and acpi=off before, but does not help now. Intel graphics, at first a flash about address collision.
Not new to CentOS, which I've installed on a few servers. I'm trying to turn a very old laptop (11 years ?), Toshiba Tecra 540cdt (with the latest available BIOS), into a home server. It runs Windows 2000 fine, and was earlier running some Mandriva versions. I'm trying a multi-boot install, from CD1of6. It does boot from the CD, then shows: boot: Loading vmlinuz... Loading initrd.img... then reboots, and goes through the same cycle. I switched the hard disk, same result. I have problems too if I try to install the latest Knoppix. An older Knoppix, 5.1 with kernel 2.6.19, will boot.
I have a problem with Thunderbird 3 on Ubuntu 10.04. When starting TB3 the 'mail account setup' box appears but can't type anything inthere... I can close the setup box... the main window is very unresponsive but cosing works also immediately. I fisrst did upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 having the problem. Thinking the upgrade might have gone wrong I did a complete fresh install on that laptop, even verified the CD with md5sum before installing. After the fresh and clean install the problem remains the same.
The machine having the problem is a Toshiba laptop Tecra S1 with 1GB of RAM. I do not experience any other problem with Ubuntu 10.04 on that machine, everything else runs like a charm, there also was no error during installation... I think this problem is related to the Toshiba Tecra S1 laptop because other machines I own don't have problems with TB3.
It feels like it is a keyboard problem because the symptoms always show after pressing a key.
In most instances, a line I am typing in "gedit" at the correct place in the text is unexpectedly continued a few lines downward even though no arrow key has been pressed. In another instance, I click "new thread" in Linuxquestions, a new window opens asking for a title, after entering the title I click "Click Here to Find Similar Threads", a new smaller window opens on top of the existing one and shows the existing options but as soon as I select (click on) one of these options, the main Linuxquestions window disappears and there is no option of "going back" to it and no "back" button to click.
If the keyboard needs cleaning, how do I do that? I found a few cleaning hints about separate keyboards but nothing about laptops.
I am having a heck of a time trying to find directions on networking my two computers together in order to share files. I have two machines running Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop & Netbook remix.
They are both connected to my wireless router to connect to the internet.
I choose a rotating background for the desktop (astronomical pictures). How can I stop this rotation and decide to keep a specific picture instead of letting the system rotate the background every few seconds?
I have up graded to natty 11.04 and am trying to get magick rotation 1.4 working on my hp tx2000 model 2130ea.I have spent a lot of time reading the forums and trying stuff including breaking natty a few times and had ton do a reinstall. Anyway I am not to sure what I am doing wrong missing a script or something I have tried a few different ways to try and rotate screen at the moment I have magick rotation installed and the only thing I can do with it is turn on/off touch and if I move the courser over the green arrow icon a drop down box appears saying its loading. I did turn on the bug report and this is what it says I attached the log.
I can't seem to get my ldap.log file to rotate on Ubuntu 9.10. I've added to the logrotate.conf file the following.. /var/log/ldap.log { missingok monthly create 0660 root utmp rotate 1 } I have also tried putting the path to the file /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog. Restarted services and still no logrotation for the ldap.log..
I have a Linux program which can write information to stdout and stderr.
I have a shell script which redirects that output to a file in /var/log. (Via >> and 2>&1.)
Is there a way to make that log file rotate? (max size, then switch to a different file, keep only a limited number of files)
I've seen a few answers which talk about the logrotate program, which sounds good, but they also seem to be focused on programs which are generating log files internally and handle HUP signals. Is there a way to make this work with a basic output redirection script?
I installed on this laptop two OS : Windows XP SP3 with drivers for M11 from Toshiba download site Fedora 14 64 bits I have no problem running Windows but sometimes when I run Fedora I hear fan starting to run at full speed then computer hangs. When this occurs, I must power off it using switch then reboot and I lost my work. I try to run Memtest86 during a full night and I did not get any error or hang.
Is there somebody who already installed Fedora 14 on Toshiba Tecra M11? kernel is 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64 and my graphic card worked fine with hardware acceleration out of the box.
I have recently done a clean install of Lucid Lynx and set everything up the way I had it in Jaunty (skipped Karmic). However, I am now having problems with the Compiz Cube and Firefox 3.6.
Whenever I rotate my workspace that contains a Firefox window that is active, the animation is very jerky and slow. It is fine if Firefox is a background window. This was never a problem in Jaunty with Firefox 3.0.
Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how I might be able to fix it? I have tried disabling all addons in Firefox.
My PC: Core 2 Duo E7400, Geforce 7010 (onboard), 2GB RAM
UPDATE: starting Firefox in Safe Mode seems to help a little. Not sure why though...
I am running Kubuntu 10.10 x64, using a Wacom Bamboo (CTH-460), I installed it by compiling the driver and moving the file as in every tutorial I could find in the Internet. The pen works perfectly, except by the fact I use TwinView and the tablet uses all the width, too sensitive. but this is something I plan to fix later... (pressure is OK)
the problem is the touch.. It almost works, right click, zoom and scroll support is ok, I believe there is no support to rotation but I can live without it... The problem is the cursor movement, seems to be a sensitivity issue. If I move very slow there is no problem, but if i move a little faster the cursor stops as if I had removed the finger from the sensor. When I try to scroll or zoom I have a similar problem, it moves an inch before it start to scroll as if it wasn't sensing the second finger, but right click is perfect so I don't think this is the problem.
Would this be a bug? Is there a way to calibrate the touch sensor? I remember editing the xorg.conf to make the touch fit the screen size in a HP Tx2510us, and to make two finger scroll on to touch pad but it was in 8.10 I believe, I cant find something like it for this problem. wacomcpl cant see the device, xsetwacom list returns nothing... xinput list returns this:
How can I get the cube rotation on a laptop with a touchpad? I love it on my desktop at work, really gets a great "WOW!" when people see it in action.I have the CSSM and extras installed, but can't figure out the keybindings with the touchpad.....
I have a big problem my hard drive is works fast all the time and now i hear clicks and scratching and weird stuff from so how can i make it slow down. i cant buy a new one if it breaks down ...
I've been trying to get it to work on my laptop off and on for several years now, experimenting first with Redhat (version 6.1, I think) and now trying with Ubuntu 9.04. I've done a full install using the entire hard drive (no dual boot). So I'm trying it for real this time. I'm having a problem with my video drivers. The video is ok (not great) and I don't seem to have any options to adjust it.
When I go into system > preferences > display, I see monitor "unknown", set at 1024x768 with a 75 Hz refresh. If I click on "detect monitors" nothing happens. It says under system > administration > hardware drivers that "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system". I've got two options:

For the first part of boot, I have access, but then when it comes up into Ubuntu, the big monitor (a Dell 2500, I think, plugged into the stock Toshiba docking station via DVI) quits working, and all I have is a dim picture (dark, like something's sapping power from it) on the laptop display.....
I am running a dual monitor setup, and prefer to have my secondary monitor rotated 90 degrees. I am able to do this in Gnome using preferences, and am wondering how to accomplish the same in XFCE.
