Package: xserver-xorg-input-wacom Version: 0.23.0+20131011-1+b1 Severity: important File: wacom
Good evening, I use a Fujitsu Lifebook T4410, which comes with a built-in touchpad and Wacom touch + stylus screen. In addition, I use a generic bluetooth mouse (typically in lieu of the touchpad when I'm using it in laptop mode). The stylus has these features: 1) tapping the pointy end normally acts like a normal left mouse button click (LMB); 2) pressing the bottom end of the stylus button and then tapping acts like a right mouse button (RMB); 3) pressing the top end of the stylus button and then tapping acts like a middle mouse button (MMB); and 4) the eraser bit at the other end of the stylus appears to act like a left mouse button click (Eraser). I was using the stylus in Xournal when I noticed that the left regular LMB was no longer working. I was still able to draw in Xournal, but tapping outside the drawing area had no effect at all. The MMB and RMB continued to work normally, except that I couldn't activate anything because the LMB wasn't working. This behaviour affected the whole desktop, which is why I'm not filing a bug with Xournal. The same behaviour extended to the laptop's touchpad and my Bluetooth mouse: right clicks, middle clicks and movement continued to work normally, but left clicks had no response. Using keyboard commands, I opened a terminal and tailed every log in /var/log/, including dmesg, syslog, Xorg.0.log, messages, kdm.log, kern.log, debug and daemon.log. I also tailed ~/.xsession-errors for good measure. None of these logs had any mention whatsoever of the Wacom drivers during the time period when the stylus/mouse started acting up. The only message relevant to human input devices were dmesg entries announcing that my Bluetooth mouse had woken up and been assigned correctly. Accordingly, other than my epic on how my mouse got to this situation, I have no other debugging information to offer. I went back into Xournal and mashed the RMB and MMB a couple of times and the LMB started working again (as did the left mouse button on my Bluetooth mouse and touchpad). For all intents and purposes, my computer is working normally again. I should add that this is not the first time the LMB has locked up like this. Sometimes, the LMB will lock in 'pressed' mode, leading to a persistent drag- and-drop state. However, I wasn't paying close enough attention the times it locked up before to give any useful information. I don't know how to reproduce this problem reliably, but I can assure that it will recur if I keep using my tablet regularly. This issue falls into one of two categories: 1) The wacom driver doesn't throw useful logging messages when the LMB locks up; or 2) There is some sort of bug in the Wacom driver which somehow causes LMBs from any input source to no longer be acknowledged. I would be grateful for any direction. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-wacom depends on: ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.2-1 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1 ii xserver-xorg-core [xorg-input-abi-20] 2:1.15.0-2 xserver-xorg-input-wacom recommends no packages.
