Re: lenny: mouse clicks are not registering reliably



Hi Florian,

Thanks for your input.

I ran this command:
xev | awk '/MotionNotify|KeymapNotify|FocusOut|ConfigureNotify|FocusIn/,/^$/ { 
next; } {print}'
and did not see the ButtonPress/ButtonRelease events when the mouse 
click were not detected.  The wacom digitizer has a indicator light that 
turns green when the mouse is clicked, and it did indeed register the 
event even when X11 did not.

Review of the upgrade log shows:
[UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-wacom 0.7.4.1-5 -> 0.7.9.3-2
so just to be sure I downloaded the upstream wacom driver, compiled and 
installed it then bounced X windows.  No difference.  I tried to kill 
devilspie which did not make any difference either.

The first part is the configured section, and I tried commenting out 
"Configured Mouse" and bouncing X without any effect:

	InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
	InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
	InputDevice "Wacom Cursor"
	InputDevice "Wacom Eraser"
	InputDevice "Wacom Stylus"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Wacom Cursor"
	Driver "wacom"
	Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
	Option "Mode" "Relative"
	Option "Speed" "4"
	Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
	Option "Suppress" "0"
	Option "Type" "cursor"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Wacom Eraser"
	Driver "wacom"
	Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
	Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
	Option "Type" "eraser"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Wacom Stylus"
	Driver "wacom"
	Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
	Option "Mode" "Absolute"
	Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
	Option "Type" "stylus"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
	Driver "kbd"
	Option "CoreKeyboard"
	Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
	Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
	Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Configured Mouse"
	Driver "mouse"
	Option "CorePointer"
	Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
	Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
EndSection

I will report back tomorrow how it goes with the "Configured Mouse".
