[Bug]: Calculator key does not show the calculator

[DavidLazarescu]

Describe the bug

I am on kde plasma and followed the install instructions. Showing the calculator via: sed -i "s/enabled = 0/enabled = 1/g" /usr/share/asus-numberpad-driver/numberpad_dev works well, but tapping the button on the top-right does not.

Is there any manual key binding that I'm supposed to setup?

Expected behavior

The calculator to show upon pressing the button.

Relevant log output

No response

@DavidLazarescu Did you hold the top right icon for at least 1s (by default, configurable)? Without the driver log file /var/log/asus-numberpad-driver/ with logged attempts of activation I can do nothing.

[DavidLazarescu]

Yes, I did hold it for more than one second. Is this the log you are requesting?-

[ldrahnik]

@DavidLazarescu ?

[DavidLazarescu]

Sorry, there was a problem with the upload, I mean this file: error.log

[ldrahnik]

@DavidLazarescu Weird. Try reinstall and please post here content of the config file numberpad_dev aswell.

[DavidLazarescu]

I have tried reinstalling it, but it still does not work. Here is my install file: install-27-06-2024-17-50-26.log

and here is numberpad_dev located at ~/:

[main]
numpad_disables_sys_numlock = 1
disable_due_inactivity_time = 0
touchpad_disables_numpad = 1
key_repetitions = 0
multitouch = 0
one_touch_key_rotation = 0
activation_time = 1
sys_numlock_enables_numpad = 1
top_left_icon_activation_time = 1
top_left_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550
top_left_icon_slide_func_activates_numpad = 1
top_right_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550
enabled_touchpad_pointer = 3
press_key_when_is_done_untouch = 1
enabled = 0
default_backlight_level = 0x01
brightness = 0x48
top_left_icon_brightness_func_disabled = 0
distance_to_move_only_pointer = 0
idled = 0
idle_brightness = 30
idle_enabled = 0
idle_time = 10

btw, sometimes the numpad is randomly showing up for some reason.3

@DavidLazarescu The config used by driver when is installed can be found on path /usr/share/asus-numberpad-driver/numberpad_dev. Or the driver was started manually so was used ~/?

I installed it following the instructions, here is the file at /usr/share/asus-numberpad-driver/numberpad_dev:

[main]
numpad_disables_sys_numlock = 1
disable_due_inactivity_time = 0
touchpad_disables_numpad = 1
key_repetitions = 0
multitouch = 0
one_touch_key_rotation = 0
activation_time = 1
sys_numlock_enables_numpad = 1
top_left_icon_activation_time = 1
top_left_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550
top_left_icon_slide_func_activates_numpad = 1
top_right_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550
enabled_touchpad_pointer = 3
press_key_when_is_done_untouch = 1
enabled = 0
default_backlight_level = 0x01
brightness = 0x48
top_left_icon_brightness_func_disabled = 0
distance_to_move_only_pointer = 0
idled = 0
idle_brightness = 30
idle_enabled = 1
idle_time = 10

@DavidLazarescu Please, increase manually these 2 config values to avoid random activations by the hands palm:

top_left_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550
top_right_icon_slide_func_activation_radius = 550

Drivers default changed to 1200px. Thank you for reporting that.

[DavidLazarescu]

Thanks. I have done that, but it still does not fix the activation issues.
