screen rotation script
screen rotation script
Hi, I am facing the similar problem when I use KICAD in KDE with Fedora 18 (64-bit) in my ThinkPad X230T convertible laptop. In KDE when I scroll inside KICAD window the pointer goes to top-left corner. KICAD is running fine with GNOME even if I rotate the screen with the attached script (rotate). Once I logout from GNOME and enter KDE there will be no problem. The problem starts if I directly enter KDE or rotate the screen in KDE. I think it is a problem with KDE desktop effect and how the xrandr configurations are treated by KDE but not sure. Hi, I think I have found the cause of this problem. With the change of USB mouse model the name of the input device changes and the entries in the rotation script are not updated accordingly. Here I have shown the list of pointer devices and the last two entries are removable. some time USB mouse can be detected as "USB OPTICAL MOUSE" instead of "Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse". [abhijit@localhost ~]$ xinput list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Wacom ISDv4 E6 Pen stylus id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Wacom ISDv4 E6 Finger touch id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=16 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint id=17 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Wacom ISDv4 E6 Pen eraser id=19 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse id=9 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ 2.4G RF Keyboard & Mouse id=11 [slave pointer (2)] Now I feel I need to dynamically update this rotate script. Please let me know if there is any other method to rotate the screen by screen rotation button in KDE. |
