Hey *,
Got a new laptop (
Fujitsu LIFEBOOK S762) and for the most part it is working just fine, but I found that I can't get DualPoint Stick to work. Please note that this device is not a "stick" it is a
round thing next to the touchpad.
Current behavior: It registers only counter clockwise circular movement and that movement is represented as third mouse button.
Desired behavior: Both clockwise and counterclockwise movement should be possible and they should result in vertical scrolling
So, this is the list of input devices, note the Stick with id 15.
Code:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ DualPoint Stick id=15 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Fujitsu FUJ02E3 id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Fujitsu FUJ02B1 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ FJ Camera id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
And the HW itself:
Code:
# cat /proc/bus/input/devices
...
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0008 Version=0000
N: Name="DualPoint Stick"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio4/input1
S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/input/input8
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=mouse0 event8
B: PROP=0
B: EV=7
B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0
B: REL=3
...

If I check with xorg-xev the keycode that I get from DualPoint Stick, I noticed that only counter clockwise movement is registering some actions. Here is the output when running xev:
Code:
ButtonRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x3000001,
root 0xdb, subw 0x0, time 5595296, (40,103), root:(43,151),
state 0x200, button 2, same_screen YES
Played around with GUI configuration utilities ("gpointing-device-settings" and "gnome-control-center mouse"), synclient (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics) and tpconfig but without much luck...
I'm running Mint Cinnamon:
Code:
Linux linuxmint 3.5.0-17-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 9 19:31:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Any help would be appreciated.
