Issues with click and drag #23

Closed alanorth closed 5 years ago

alanorth commented 6 years ago

This is a bit hard to explain, but I am having issues with physical click and drag using one finger. This causes problems with, for example, selecting files in the file manager, moving windows, selecting text on a webpage, etc. holding with thumb and dragging, as well as double tap and drag work fine. I'm using the latest version of the driver on Linux 4.18.

Here is a video demonstrating the problem: https://youtu.be/L-U8M6quwXA

@alanorth Thanks for reporting back! To be honest i haven't had the time to test the patch in Linux 4.18. But maybe this is a configuration issue, when i get back to my trackpad in 2 weeks after vacation i will test it. But i think i would have noticed this. Which Desktop and driver backend (xf86-mtrack or xf86-libinput) are you using? Maybe there is someone who in the meantime could check this...

I haven't been able to reproduce the bug. I've also been testing on kernel v4.18, but using chromiumOS (so no xf86).

@robotrovsky you're right, I forgot to give those critical details! This behavior happens for me on Xorg and Wayland, using libinput driver on both. Current versions on Arch Linux:

I've not tried libinput recently, but xf86-input-mtrack is working fine for click and drag on Arch.

alanorth commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to keep my setup in Wayland so I can't test xf86-input-mtrack. I have no other issues with this driver, and my workaround is either to double tap and then select/drag, or use my thumb and select/drag. Would you like me to close this issue, @robotrovsky?

I also ran into this issue. I think it's something to do with https://github.com/robotrovsky/Linux-Magic-Trackpad-2-Driver/commit/8d93f27b96b19373c70e93af8d39ab58aec7ecd5. Back when I was on kernel 4.17 I just used the rev previous to this one to avoid the issue.

I'm on fedora 28, happens with both wayland and x11. xorg-x11-libinput 0.27.1.2 xorg-x11-server-Xorg 1.18.6-8 libinput 1.11.3-1 kernel 4.18.8-200 wayland 1.15.0

Can not reproduce on Linux 4.19.x or 4.20-rc4 anymore.
