[solved] Touchpad doesn't work anymore

I have a Acer Extensa 5235. Since today the touchpad isn't working on Arch anymore.
I tried out a Windows installation medium and there it worked so it should be physicaly okay.

> Can you post what you added to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf?
I tried a couple of different options in 10-evdev-conf and 10-synaptics.conf. None really made a difference.
The cleanest might be this:
10-synaptics.conf as above.
included at the end of 10-evdev.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "disable synaptics secound mouse found"
MatchProduct "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "Ignore" "on"

Touchpad doesn't work anymore

Hello there,
I've a problem with my touchpad. It doesn't work anymore.
A few months ago I had a few problems with the touchpad. The cursor was running over the screen, random clicking some things. Sometimes it happened for an hour, sometimes for a few days, but it always stopped. Later it didn't disapear anymore. The touchpad isn't working at all, so I'm not able to work with it anymore. I already cleaned the touchpad from the outside and the inside., but there's no change. It's not so good that something important like that gets broken in such a short time, I have my laptop for two years now. I'm curious if there is a special guarantee for this, because I think this is not my fault. Maybe there is something wrong from the beginning or something.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks a lot.
Bye.

You can check your service and support coverage here.
I have my laptop for two years now.
Unless you purchased Apple care, the one year limited warranty has expired.

Satellite L300-26K - After BIOS update the touchpad doesn't work anymore

Hi,
like recommended by tempro, I updated BIOS from ver.2.1 to 2.2 (windows-Version). After rebooting, touchpad incl. tips doesnt work anymore. In bios touchpad is enabled, in system it says unit is working properly. FN/F9 makes no effect. Reinstalling synaptics drivers - no effect - still dead.
Satellite L300-26K
Using Vista 32bit home
How can I restore BIOS to 2.1 again? (if i try the windows-bios utility from V2.1 it says it is still installed - so I cannot downgrade by this easy way)
Please help - I need my notebook without external mouse (this works)
yours
Oliver

Hi enigmo,
I cant imagine that this happened due the BIOS update. Have you tried reinstalling Windows by using Toshiba recovery disk?
This BIOS downgrade can only be done from an authorized service provider. The technicians can install every version because they have such special tools to make a downgrade.
On the Toshiba website you can find a list of them. Just give the guys and ask for that. They will help you! :)

[Solved] Alac doesn't work anymore with Gstreamer0.10

Apple Loseless Audio Codec support seems to be broken for me in the 0.10 branch of gstreamer. Before I was able to play ALAC files in rhythmbox and banshee but it does not work anymore. I think the support for ALAC files is integrated in the package gstreamer-ffmpeg.
This problem does't seems to occur in the 1.0 branch of gstreamer as ALAC files work with Totem and it also work with vlc which use dirrectly ffmpeg.
Does someone have the same problem or is it a problem with my system ?
I tried to reinstall gstreamer0.10 and all plugins but it didn't solve the problem.

Put as solved, it works back with the new version of rhythmbox

[SOLVED]MySQL doesn't work anymore

BUT, it no longer works:

Both give errors, as well as Phpmyadmin. I can't seem to find any relevant log files either. I tried some random stuff, but nothing seems to work. I just got MySQL set up on this box about 2 days ago, then an update comes around and messes it up again

Yes, I did read that. Even after messing with config files it doesn't work. And PHP config? I'll assume that's a typo. What all do you have to change? Everything looks fine on my current my.cnf file, I think at least.

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between
# two methods :
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
# the syntax is:
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
# MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
# where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
# <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
# Example:
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
# OR
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
# (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted

# to the master - required
#master-user =
# The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to
# the master - required

[SOLVED]Jack doesn't work anymore

Good day people,
It seems that Jack stopped working all of a sudden. Well, it's not really all of a sudden, it hasn't been working for 3 months or so, but before that it worked just fine and I did not change any setting since then. I didn't post before because I don't really use JACK too often but now it seems like I'll be going to need it.
The package I'm using is jack2 from the community repository, not jack2-dbus or jack or any other package, although I've tried them with the same results.
First, let's try to start jack the old fashioned way
$jack_control start
it results in
DBus exception: org.jackaudio.Error.Generic: Failed to open server
...ook. Let's try an even older fashion way.
$jackd -d alsa
The output is:

No luck this time, either. And before you ask, I tried giving jackd other parameters but it didn't change anything.
I now try Qjackctl. As soon as I open it, it says:

I've tried deleting all jack config files, changing settings and before you ask, I've tried with and without pulseaudio (which got along with Jack just fine before everything broke). It seems to be a d-bus problem at first but it gives me issues with d-bus disabled as well. I've read A LOT of forum posts and mailing lists before posting here and I can tell you that none of the solutions that worked for others worked for me, and many just gave up.
I don't have any audio/drive issues and as I said, my computer used to run Jack2 just fine. The output of cat /proc/asound/cards is
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xf0400000 irq 45
It seems strange to me that jack2 and jack2-dbus act exactly the same way in regards to dbus but dbus is just one of the several problems, it seems. Right now I'm running my music production thanks to a live Ubuntu Studio stick (the horror, I know) and after extensive research I feel I'm out of ideas. I mean, I uninstalled jack and deleted all config files and it still doesn't go back to normal, what can I do? I suspect my problem may be related to improper configuration of something in /etc/ but I didn't touch anything audio-related in ages and as I said, jack used to work with the same configuration. It seems to have problem accepting that my sound card is hw:0, maybe. I don't know, it makes me crazy. Can someone help me? Thanks.
Edit: The problem is solved, checkout my last reply to this thread for the solution.

Hi, I'm having a similar issue. I've been using jack2 as the main audio server with pulseaudio routed through it for more than a year with no issues until a couple of weeks ago when after a power failure jack just stopped working.
After double checking my conf (found nothing strange, again, I'm using jack in normal production for over a year and havent touched conf in a while) and downgrading kernels and jack with no success I realized that if I suspended the PC, and tryed to start jack after resuming it, there wasnt any problems at all!!? Jack works!
Something similar happens in my laptop (same setup), but in this case jack fails to start only the first try, on the 2nd try it will start flawlesly.
Could it be related to systemctl?? dbus?? (the same happens with Dbus interface enabled or not)
Pulseaudio? I've read in forums there are some issues between jack and pulseaudio, and in fact I can see pulseaudio “dead” in both situations (jack working and not)
systemctl status pulseaudio
pulseaudio.service
Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
I guess I'm still not getting right the new Systemd method or the pulseaudio method or both
Here's the log of Qjackctl when it fails (same result starting jack from command line)
ERROR: JackProcessSync::LockedTimedWait error usec = 5000000 err = Connection timed out
ERROR: Driver is not running
ERROR: Cannot open client name = dbusapi
ERROR: failed to create dbusapi jack client

17:49:58.744 Could not connect to JACK server as client. - Overall operation failed. - Server communication error. Please check the messages window for more info.
Client name = qjackctl conflits with another running client
Any hints will be very welcome!
Cheers!

[SOLVED] Sound doesn't work anymore

Hi,
I just installed cinnamon to test it and pulseaudio was one of its dependencies. But after testing it a few minutes, I uninstalled it again with the -Rs option.
After login to my old i3 wm the sound didn't work again. I have no explanations. Has anyone an idea how I can solve this problem?!
Thanks in advance!

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues. I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
Good luck!

As hwd doesn't work anymore... [SOLVED]

As hwd doesn't work anymore, I have a problem with installing and maintaining Xorg on my Arch machine. I recently reinstalled Archlinux on my desktop machine, and was unaware that Xorg had been updated.
So when I tried to do my normal installation routine of installing all the necessary drivers, xorg and hwd, I ran into a problem. When I ran hwd -u + -xa, it said No X server installed. I searched around and found out that hwd was not supported any longer.
So I figured i'd just do the manual configuration of Xorg. So I ran X -configure, and then ran the server. Everytime I did this, the computer would freeze up upon entering the environment.
So I tried doing nvidia-xconfig, and ended up actually getting into the environment, but after all the xterm windows had popped up, it froze again everytime.
After reading abit articles on the subject, I tried letting Xorg simply use HAL for it's hardware recognization. This time it worked, and I was able to enter the environment with no problem. So I went with this alternative, and installed Openbox.
Now, the problem shows up when I enter the environment. I can clearly see that there's somewhat of a problem with the graphics. So I tried configuring a minimal xorg.conf to run along side HAL. This still didn't fix the problem. The problem is, there are areas of the screen that are SLIGHTLY blurry. For example, if I write something in xterm, then move it to certain parts of the screen, the text becomes mildly blurry. It's not a big problem, just irritating. But this little problem may be an indication of a bigger problem. I'm sensing I don't have 3D capabilities, but haven't tested yet.
Another thing is; When I write something in xterm while in the environment, and I hold down the backspace button... Xorg simply crashes without any particular error.
Anyway, my point is; I had an idea that, is there some way to make hwd recognize the xorg server as a older version, making it configure a file for it? I've never had any problem with xorg up until this new update, which irritates me alot, making me want to find some other distrobution of linux.
I hope someone can help me fix this.
Last edited by SomeoneWithAPurpose (2009-05-15 22:24:17)

you could roll back your Xorg version to continue using hwd in the meantime...
I'm assuming you've followed http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … _xorg.conf to try without xorg / with minimal xorg. Have you ensured that your drivers are up to date? I would attempt reinstalling video drivers, trying HAL again with NO xorg file, and if that fails, try it with minimal xorg.
Hopefully someone comes along with a more concrete solution...I'm just hoping to steer you down a path of some new ideas (if you havent already tried this...)
I had some trouble with the latest version. Reinstalling video drivers and running with no xorg.conf was the fix...I know you said you tried this same thing, but you havent specified how new your drivers are or anything... Good luck and free bump!

[solved] Volume control in amarok doesn't work anymore

Hi,
since today in amarok (2.4.1) the volume control doesn't work anymore. I can change the level on the switch on the top right but it doesn't change the actual volume.
The volume control in my KDE tray works as usual.

[solved] Amarok 2.3.1: streaming/webradio doesn't work anymore

I updated to Amarok 2.3.1 and now music streams/webradio doesn't work anymore. Anyone else experiencing this? Someone know, how I can get rid of this?
EDIT/SOLUTION: Switched phonon-backend from gstreamer to xine and now it works again.

Find the following information e.g. "mms://wms-trn-all.streaming.net.nz/trn-newstalk-zb-akl".
This is the proper link that amarok can and will play. A bit of a faff, but it works for me.
I've always had to do it this way

Touchpad doesn't work - HP Pavilion DV4 - 2120ca

Re: Pavilion DV4-2120ca
Touchpad doesn't work after cleaning out the dust collection in the fan, heat sink area. New Therma paste was applied.
Both the keyboard & touchpad were the 2 things that didn't work following reassembly. The keyboard didn't work but able to use USB wireless mouse. Couple days ago the replacement battery finally arrived, installed and charged for 12 hours. After restart, the keyboard works as it should.
Unfortunately, touchpad still doesn't work. The light switch above the touchpad works, clicking on it turns white & amber but any movement scrolling doesn't work.
We tried the following, but unsuccessful
double tapping top left corner
Hard Reset
Uninstalled ALPS & Synaptics -- reinstalled , restarted
Updated Windows, HP, BIOS, Drivers
Don't recall during reassembly if touchpad has a cable or connector. If so, perhaps worth try to disconnect & reconnect to ensure correct connection.
What do u advise to try next?
Thank u
~ Gayle ~

Did you connect the ribbon cable for the Touchpad. Often times there is one for the keyboard and one for the touchpad separately. Hopefully you have not damaged the ribbon cable. Just make sure you push it all the way in and seat it properly.

I have purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and now my first dvd of the software doesn't work anymor

I have purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and now my first dvd of the software doesn't work anymore. My computer doesn't want to read it anymore. I want to mention that I also tried on some other computers and still the problems continues. How can I solve this? On the Adobe webpage I can't find anymore the download for Adobe CS4. Thanks. Marius Lupu

You can download the software from http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html and can serialize it with the serial number you have.

[SOLVED] Lid doesn't suspend anymore with xfce power manager

The options "When laptop lid is closed" are set to suspend (and used to work), but still, when I close my lid, nothing happens. Using the logout dialog or the suspend button my keyboard works. Is it a problem with xfce-power-manager, or ACPI not registering the lid event anymore? Any idea how to fix that?
[edit]
I solved that problem by removing ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-power-manager.xml, killing the power manager and reloging in my session to flush the settings. Then I reconfigured the lid closed action to suspend (and everything else to my liking).

Sorry to bother you again, but for some reason it doesn't work anymore...
Somehow it can't lock the GNOME session, because when I enter the above line from /etc/acpi/handler.sh manually as root in TTY1, I get this error:
** Message: Failed to get session bus: Befehlszeile »dbus-launch --autolaunch=c9375f4ea0008d92177b28db000009ae --binary-syntax --close-stderr« brach mit von Null verschiedenem Beenden-Status 1 ab: No protocol specified\nAutolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.\n
If I enter this command inside GNOME, everything works just fine, it locks the screen and suspends.
EDIT:
Setting the XAUTHORITY environment variable properly did the trick. Therefore, I borrowed some lines from here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Su … losing_lid
