Ubuntu :: Two Finger Scrolling Goes Away

Dec 9, 2010

I've been able to get two finger scrolling working thanks to ptosiani's solution in this thread: [URL]

The problem is if I restart my computer, two finger scrolling doesn't work anymore and I have to go through the process again to get it working. Does anybody have some insight on this problem?

Ubuntu :: 11.04 Invert 2 Finger Scrolling?

Jun 26, 2011

I most recently ran a developer preview of os x 10.7 Lion, and in that OS two finger scrolling was inverted (ie, moving two fingers upward on the touchpad would scroll you down the page). I love that I didn't need any extra drivers to get two finger scrolling working with ubuntu 11.04 on my 3rd gen mac air, and am super impressed with all the out of the box drivers for my mac; but I'm wondering if there's a way to invert the two finger scrolling directions. There must be... It's probably technically involved and will necessitate modify x11 files or something, but I think there must be a way.

I've just got the multi-touch driver work with ubuntu 10.10 64bit on my alumni macbook. Now I can do scroll and right click with two fingers.

Ubuntu :: Run A Terminal Command At Startup For Multi-Touch Scrolling?

Jun 12, 2010

I'm a day-1 Ubuntu user with a question about getting multi-touch scrolling enabled on my laptop automatically each time 10.04 loads. I'm very green when it comes to all-things-Linux. Basically, I'm just searching for help, following step-by-step guides, and copying-and-pasting commands. I found the following website that helped me create a little script to enable multi-touch control:[URL]...

But I can't figure out the last step: "All you need to do to have this run at startup [instead of typing ./2fsrl in terminal manually each time] is add it to you startup programs." I tried creating a file path to the 2fsrl file in Preferences -> Startup Applications program, but upon re-starting the laptop, the multi-touch isn't enabled anymore. I'm sure I'm missing something simple. Can anyone advise? (Keep in mind my beginner's status!)

Fedora Hardware :: Two Finger And Three Finger Tap Reversed In F14?

Feb 3, 2011

i upgraded from f13 to f14 using preupgrade.

now, as the title suggests, the two finger tap acts as a right click, and the three button tab acts as a middle click. and also the tap to click seems disabled by default.

after reading this page, [URL], i created a 50-synaptics.conf file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and put this inside.

Code:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"

Hardware :: Unable To See Everything On Screen Without Scrolling Over Then Screen Pulls Back

Jul 7, 2011

I'm trying to fix this screen problem I continue to have (an example: in Evolution, its like my screen is too small to see everything, I have to scroll over down or over, then the window moves over and pulls me back to original spot. I've tried to change the screen resolution and that actually makes things worse. The screen problem is very irritating and I don't know why its happening. I've been using Ubuntu or Mint for years and have never had this problem.

Also, a similar problem but nowhere near as annoying: the sides of either side of screen are black. I can't get the monitor to be completely filled. I went to Intel's website and they have a few drivers compatible for linux (at least that is what they are saying).

I'm using Ubuntu lts 10.04 lucid lynx
2.6.32-32-generic
mscatamaran@mscatamaran-desktop:~$ lspci

Ubuntu Installation :: Update From ISO Hangs With Scrolling Dots On Screen

Apr 30, 2010

I burned and checked the image, but cannot install or upgrade ( I DL both the full and alternate image) Hangs on the Ubuntu screen with the scrolling dots. After this, I tried mounting and running the install from the iso, but since all the files are either .inf or unknown, I don't know how. Next, I tried a trick from the ubuntu site using alt+F2 to run from the iso, and it seemed to work, but now it still tries to DL the updates from the internet instead of just getting them from the ISO. This also happens now if I try to upgrade from the update manager, it keeps asking for the install disk. Is there any way to just use the ISO as though it were a disk? I have been running 9.10 for months with no problems.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Screen Scrolling/rolling When Resolution Is 1920x1080?

Mar 5, 2011

I recently bought a 37" Vizio M370NV HDTV and connected it to my Kubuntu 10.10 desktop.Currently my resolution is 1280x1024, so there is black bars on the side of my screen. I want my resolution to be 1920x1080, which is what the TV/monitor says is it's primary resolution. However, when I set that resolution in nvidia-settings, my screen scrolls up. By that I mean that my screen keeps moving up my monitor and appearing at the bottom.

Ubuntu :: Setting Up A Touch Screen

Oct 21, 2010

I must say I've spent many nights trying to get this touch screen going on ubuntu but with no luck. Does anyone have any general step by step instructions or is there any sites I can go on. I have a Acer t230h and the furthest Ive got with it is typing something into the terminal and getting out aload of strange looking symbols and stuff. I presume that was in the right direction but i forget what I pressed... something like 'lbus' but longer I think. I have the touchscreen info plugged in with a usb lead so what ever their called in ubuntu might be a help. another thing I did find something related to the screen in the /dev/ folder by plugin it in and out a couple of times and spotting what file was missing and coming back but when I run it in terminal this is what happens - evan@ubuntu:~$ cat /dev/hidraw0 cat: /dev/hidraw0: Permission denied

Ubuntu :: Touch Screen Disbleing In 11.04?

Jul 27, 2011

i have just updated my system to the new 11.04 on my fujitsu siemens T5010, which supports both touch via a wacom pen and finger touch.It is nice to be able to use my finger on the screen as i can in windows, but it is a pain that i can't rest my hand on the screen while using the pen to draw something. Do you know how i could temporarily disable the touchscreen for anything but my pen? A keyboard command to disable/enable it would be great

Fedora :: Scrolling Causes Striping Screen Glitches In Firefox?

Dec 29, 2009

I had to disable "smooth scrolling"

Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General > Smooth Scrolling

I'm using LXDE on a HP510 Laptop, it's onboard graphics chipset is a: Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller. I am not using an xorg.conf file, so the settings are just the default autodetect ones I assume. I've noticed it when scrolling in firefox, and can't seem to get it to do it when scrolling in other applications, but I haven't really used this laptop much since installing the Fedora 12 LXDE spin recently. I'm not sure what information to supply that will help you help me. Here is a screenshot to show what happens.

I dunno what the big black box is, its only visible on the screenshot. I had to bind a script to printscreen to get it to make a screenshot, so its probably something I need to do here to get rid of it?

Code:

#!/bin/bash
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d %H-%M`
import -window root "$HOME/Desktop/screenshot $DATE.png"

I also can't get the touchpad scrolling to work. Or my external monitor without some issues. So I think I will be making an xorg.conf file at some point.

Fedora :: Screen Tearing While Scrolling And Watching Videos?

Apr 18, 2011

"screen tearing" whenever I scroll, watch flash videos, or any videos in general. I first noticed this in Fedora 14, and now I notice the same behaviour in Linux Mint.Does anyone know what might be causing this? My Graphics Card is: Nvidia Geforce GTX 280M (1GB) I'm using Nvidia proprietary drivers. Reading some forums I see that the problem might be related to Compiz. Here's my xorg.conf file (if needed);

OpenSUSE Install :: Screen Scrolling Really Fast And Will Go Black

Nov 21, 2010

I Have installed openSUSE 11.3 using VMWare and liked it so I thought I would install as my main OS. So I downloaded the latest livecd Gnome and created a usb install using imagewriter with suse. I can boot to the initial menu asking if I want to boot the livecd or install. If I choose either it will begin to show a lot of things on the screen scrolling really fast and then the screen will go black. I've waiting up to about 15 minutes with no result.

General :: Get A Touch Screen Working With Ubuntu 10.04LTS?

May 8, 2010

I'm trying to get a touch screen working with Ubuntu 10.04LTS (32bit) //changed to 32 bit -it is a serial touchsceen, connected at /dev/ttyS0 ,i know that works because I get garbage in the terminal when I enable it. -before the screen used a 3m driver (I believe) in XP.

My knowledge of Linux is passive so I generally pick up something when I need it. To get this working I came accross a lot of tutorials (a lot outdated a bit), I'm still at a loss to get this work.

I'm not sure where to put linux drivers (/usr/ or /dev/?) most tutorials kind of skip over that part. I have tried editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf unsuccessfully. I'm not sure what the syntax for that is supposed to be.

Ubuntu :: Using Autohide For Top & Bottom Bars On A Touch Screen?

Apr 16, 2010

I have a Fujitsu P1610 convertible running 9.10. I only like the two bars visible when I need them otherwise they just take up valuable screen space, especially on a 8.9" screen.

My problem is I cannot make the bars come up by moving the cursor via my finger. It works fine if I move the pointer via a mouse but that is not an option when in tablet mode. How can I make them come up when I move the cursor to their location via my finger?

General :: Why Can't Get Usb Touch Screen On A EEE PC 900 To Work

Mar 1, 2010

I have checked and as of right now can not find any topic on my problem. I purchased and installed a usb touch screen for my EEE PC 900 4GB hard drive. My problem is that my computer will not recognize the screen. When I go into the Systems Test, The USB touch is recognized, but that is it. Do I have to download drivers? (Even for a usb?) I went into the bios, and enabled the web-cam, which I have used for power. (I think) If any one can offer me some advice, I will be forever grateful. I would love to have this up and running for my husbands birthday, which is in 2 weeks. Could the problem be with the size of the hard drive? I am 98% sure I have it installed correctly. I have followed the instructions that were supplied.
