Hi, an Acer notebook with a Synaptics Touchpad makes some trouble here. My primary problem is: I restart the mouse daemon and then I can move the mouse only for a short distance; suddenly the mouse freezes.
To analyze the problem I do the following: # /etc/rc.d/moused restart # dd if=/dev/sysmouse bs=4 | xxd -c 4 0000000: 87fb 05fb .... 0000004: 0687 f709 .... 0000008: 8787 f207 .... 000000c: 87e1 09e1 .... 0000010: 0a87 f600 .... 0000014: f600 87e2 .... 0000018: f8e3 f987 .... 000001c: f7fa f8fb .... 0000020: 87f3 f7f4 .... 0000024: f887 f3f5 .... 0000028: f3f6 87f4 .... 000002c: f3f4 f487 .... 0000030: f7f4 f8f5 .... 0000034: 87fa f5fb .... 0000038: f587 fcf5 .... 000003c: fdf6 87ff .... 0000040: f6ff f787 .... 0000044: 01f6 02f6 .... 0000048: 87 . 18+1 records in 18+1 records out 73 bytes transferred in 21.774484 secs (3 bytes/sec) # You see: dd stops without reporting an error. Obviously the moused doesn't work properly any more. Further I seem to have missed something else. I found the page http://wiki.freebsd.org/SynapticsTouchpad where are mentioned some sysctls: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" hw.psm.synaptics.vscroll_hor_area=1300 I don't have those ctls here and I cannot find the kernel driver that provides them. Does anybody have some advice for me? Thanks in advance.
