General TC > Tiny Core Netbooks

Installed Xorg-7.7 and now touchpad stopped to respond. What should I do?

(1/4) > >>

Dinir:
My netbook originally uses 1366x768 resolution, and can't use 915resolution since it's using nVidia chipset.

So I tried installing Xorg-7.7.tcz as onBoot, and as I couldn't make change with it (console says 'Only console user can...' message), I rebooted the computer.

Now, after booting touchpad doesn't respond. I don't know if the touchpad is the only thing not working. I have to make hard power off.

I need to get my touchpad back...

Juanito:
What version and architecture of tinycore are you using?

What make of touchpad do you have?

Did you download Xorg-7.7 using the apps gui or did you do it manually?

Dinir:
I connected a USB mouse into it, now I know that
- touchpad 'buttons' work.
- sudo Xorg outputs this:
(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) Server is already active for display 0
        If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
        and start again.
(EE)
(EE)
Please consult the The X.org Foundation support
         at http://wiki.x.org
 for help.

- if I remove the .X0-lock Terminal says I have to restart X server first to do anything with Xorg.
- I changed resolution to 800x600 before reboot, so now when I move mouse whole screen scrolls up and down.
- But I can't access Xvesa again. It instantly shutdown as I clicked it on wbar.

uname -r says '3.16.6-tinycore'.
I am using Asus EeePC 1201N, I don't think what I should answer about the touchpad...
I downloaded it using the apps gui. I set it to loaded onBoot using the apps gui.

Juanito:
It's hard to help if you don't know what touchpad you have...

You can try to load the xf86-input-synaptics extension and Xorg-7.7 and then look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any error messages.

Note that from the console prompt you start Xorg or Xvesa with "startx" and not with "sudo Xorg".

Dinir:
I runned cat Xorg.0.log | grep -n 'WW' and cat Xorg.0.log | grep -n 'EE'. and this is the result.

I thought I should use Xorg on console as I saw a post saying I could use something like Xorg & xrandr -s 800x600.
