[Bug 496817] Re: xinput no longer works to set-ptr-feedback after the latest Xserver upgrade in Lucid

 

I'm having the same problem: some device names are not recognized any more, in my case "bcm5974".
As you can see below, "xinput list" shows this device, and I can manipulate it using the id (12) but not the
name ("bcm5974").  I could use the name with karmic, but not since I upgraded to lucid.

$ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer              	id=4	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse"       	id=10	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ "Macintosh mouse button emulation"      	id=14	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ "bcm5974"                               	id=12	[slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                   	id=3	[master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard             	id=5	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Power Button"                          	id=6	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Video Bus"                             	id=7	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Power Button"                          	id=8	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Sleep Button"                          	id=9	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Apple, Inc. Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad"	id=11	[slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ "Built-in iSight"                       	id=13	[slave  keyboard (3)]
$ xinput set-int-prop "bcm5974" "Device Enabled" 8 0
unable to find device bcm5974
$ xinput set-int-prop 12 "Device Enabled" 8 0
