Attached rotation script for Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal

Hi,

after upgrading my S10-3t to Ubuntu Natty, I have been having terrible problems resuming the computer from suspended state - when I open the display, every second or third time, the standard power and battery leds are lit but other than that, the computer is unresponsive and there's nothing to do except a hard reboot. Obviously, /var/log/syslog has no indication of anything being wrong (or at least I didn't notice anything there).

Has anyone else had similar issues?

Cheers,

mairas

I installed Natty directly and have not had these problems.

I installed Natty directly and have not had these problems.

Thanks for the info - I might nuke my current setup and try that out.

I have Natty installed and am unable to get my wireless working. The system starts up with the wireless disabled in software (rfkill list). If I try to toggle it on then the system freezes. I've also tried installing the Broadcom STA drivers and was still unable to get my wireless working. I believe with the Broadcom STA drivers installed the system would not lock up but trying to toggle the wireless on would have no effect.

The wireless is not hardware or BIOS disabled.

Hi. Been running ubuntu on s10-3t for 5mths and love the set up. Has any one got Gnome3 running on Maverick (don't want to step up to Natty just yet). Pls link to any instructions if poss as these havent worked for me http://bit.ly/c2ZMvf

Great to see a [pro]active thread on this machine which I use for everything. Never realised it could go 64bit. Is there anyway to move from 32 to 64 via terminal/synaptics.

I'm no programmer just an enthused end user of Ubuntu since Edgy Eft and Lenovo fanboy

Hm, I have heard of people installing 64 bit onto a partition which had 32 bit on before, which basically upgraded it, but leaving the configuration as it was. Unless you are fairly confident, I would give this a miss though.

Personally I would wait a couple of days till Natty is released, then download the 64bit version of that and start from scratch. Just remember to back up all your files first.

There is no real benefit to move to 64bit on these specs. If you already are running 32bit, then it's better not to worry about 64 bit until you plan to do a complete re-install.

your scripts works, thanks.
if i'm getting it right and i'm not doing something wrong i've noted that ginn's coordinate system (and external mouse too) is screwed up from this script, e.g. when the screen is upside down gestures works conversely, e.g. html pages in firefox scrolls on the opposite side of where i'm scrolling my fingers.
i enclose the wishes.xml file i'm using and trying to edit (i still miss right click but got two fingers scroll in firefox and evince)
maybe the script could restart ginn sourcing a different wishes.xml ?
but what about external mouse?
sorry about my broken english.

git version of xserver-xorg-input-evdev supports (enabling it through xinput --set-prop or probably a .conf in xorg.xonf.d) right click emulation:

i don' have time right now to document this but basically it's
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-evdev
then install missing dependencies make and brutally subsitute /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/evdev_drv.so with the one that you have just made.
this will make xorg crash and you will miss your changes at every xserver-xorg-input-evdev upgrade, if you have a cleanest way to do it post here
many thanks to Peter Hutterer for the patch:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/dri...t/?id=d9001a6b
this patch + ginn = touchscreen more usable

EDIT
i enclose the module if you trust me and don't want to bother to build it
remember to

fabio@s10:~$ xinput --set-prop "Cando Corporation Cando 10.1 Multi Touch Panel with Controller" "Evdev Third Button Emulation" 1
fabio@s10:~$ xinput --set-prop "Cando Corporation Cando 10.1 Multi Touch Panel with Controller" "Evdev Third Button Emulation Timeout" 500

the second command sets the timeout, check which one is the best for you
the module works with today natty's xorg

REEDIT it seems like the module like i posted breaks ginn, i will retrying appling ubuntu's patch or applying third button emulation to ubuntu's evdev -- no way for me, i know nothing about C and ubuntu's evdev is heavily patched, so i must choose between right-click or ginn. sorry about that
