Or is there a race between the clickpad event and touch event and in my hardware, the click is occasionally arriving before the touch? If the former, what an odd hardware issue... If the latter, should this not be handled since the relative timings of click/touch events may not be guaranteed? > This is a hw problem, i think your clickpad is simply wearing out. You could > probably test this by clicking the touchpad with a pen (something that doesn't > get detected by the touchpad) and see if that triggers the BTN_LEFT up event. Here's the result of pressing and releasing the button with a pen: E: 0.000001 0001 0110 0001 # EV_KEY / BTN_LEFT 1 E: 0.000001 0000 0000 0000 # ------------ SYN_REPORT (0) ---------- +0ms E: 0.095194 0001 0110 0000 # EV_KEY / BTN_LEFT 0 E: 0.095194 0000 0000 0000 # ------------ SYN_REPORT (0) ---------- +95ms After trying quite a number of times, I've not seen either event go missing yet. Is this correct behaviour? (Thanks again for your help!)</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
