hello all,

i have two problems with a fresh installation of zenwalk 7.0 on dell vostro 1015. the two problems are related to the xorg.conf file.

first : the vertical and horizontal scroll of the touchpad don't work. i tried adding :
- Option "VertEdgeScroll" "on" or Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1" and
- Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "on" or Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "1".
but no success.
it worked on zenwalk 6.4

second : my resolution is only 1024x768. with zenwalk 6.4, i had 1366x768.

my xorg.conf :
Code:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by videoconfig, the Zenwalk X Configurator.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command from runlevel 3:
# videoconfig

Code:
root[a]# xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 4096 x 4096
VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 331mm x 207mm
   1280x800       59.9*+
   1024x768       60.0 
   800x600        60.3 
   640x480        59.9 


Type xrandr as root, like me. It list your available screen dimensions, according to your xorg.conf it should contain a 1366x768 resolution. Then type e.g.:

xrandr -s 0

Numbering is up from down so here 1280x800 is zero 1024x768 is one and so on.
I hope it helps you.

Better still delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf entirely.
Your touchpad can be configured in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ (example files in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ )

Your intel graphics card shouldn't need xorg.conf

thanks for your replies.


@aiszisz
the output of xrandr :
Code:
azertyh[~]$ xrandr
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1024 x 768, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 768

   1024x768        0.0*


i dont know if these are useful but i see these lines in the Xorg.0.log :

@Zenwalk addict
i copy your xorg.conf (actually the lines concerning the touchpad) but the scrolls don't work.


@aurlaent
i delete the xorg.conf, reboot the X server, same problem.
and i don't understand the "Your touchpad can be configured in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ (example files in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ )". i see a file about touchpad configuration in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/, but what to do with it?


i did some search. they advise to change the driver "vesa" to "intel". i did it and i got an error that the driver "intel" doesn't exist.

i changed also "vesa" to "i810", but same error : the driver "i810" doesn't exist. i tried "i810" because i see this line in the Xorg.0.log :
Code:
azertyh[~]$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep Chipset
[   420.395] (II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810,


i changed also "vesa" to "i915", but same error : the driver "i915" doesn't exist. i tried "i915" because i see that :
Code:
root[azertyh]# lsmod | grep intel
snd_hda_intel          14020  2
snd_hda_codec          34996  2 snd_hda_codec_conexant,snd_hda_intel
snd_pcm                33828  3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec
intel_agp               6532  1 i915
intel_gtt               7560  3 i915,intel_agp

agpgart                15204  3 drm,intel_agp,intel_gtt
snd_page_alloc          3872  2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm



so, i'm there.
i download some files explaining xorg.conf. i will read them tomorrow.

Its from the end of xrandr man page
Code:
Forces to use a 1024x768 mode on an output called VGA:
              xrandr --newmode "1024x768" 63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768  771
               775 798 -hsync +vsync
              xrandr --addmode VGA 1024x768
              xrandr --output VGA --mode 1024x768
I would try this with that values from your Xorg.0.log.
Btw Im just guessing :/

-------------------------------------
Try to remove xorg.conf and reboot
I supose that you have modeset.
If not
run liloconfig again
at boot parametres write
i915.modeset=1
choose standard linux console
delete xorg.conf from /etc/X11
and reboot
-----------------------------------
If you don't have modeset the kernel will not load the intel driver and you keep using vesa
If you choose a console whit higher resolution
ctrl-alt-F2 will not work
deleting xorg.conf probably will enable scroll
or follow aurlaent post
------------------
please read all the posts about intel graphic.and synaptics

Please refer to old threads or search wiki. There is a section for a localization for keyboard.

hello all,

solved

to have the french keyboard :
- i copy the 90-keyboard-layout.conf from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
- and i modify the line Option "XkbLayout" "us" to Option "XkbLayout" "fr"

to have the horizontal scrolling to work :
- i copy the 50-synaptics.conf from /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
- and i add the line Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1"

thanks.
