I see this too with 2.6.27-rc4. >From the page that Alex linked to is the attached patch. The fix is to change KEY_MAX to sizeof(evbits), to match the proper use of the ioctl.
Commit c0edf5ab7f7dda32987f2d8461f0c61b6b4bd764 in debian's xserver- xorg-input-synaptics git repo added the patch, and 0.14.7~git20070706-2.1.lenny1 was the first release with that patch. Debian released 0.14.7~git20070706-3.lenny1 on Monday, which along with this fix also contains support for the new Apple touchpads (presumably made possible by the new Apple touchpad kernel driver in .27), making it a good candidate for inclusion in Ubuntu. ** Attachment added: "synaptics-eviocgbit.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17084404/synaptics-eviocgbit.patch -- synaptics (almost) crashes in recent kernels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259129 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
