[Bug]: Not working after install about asus-numberpad-driver HOT 26 CLOSED

@ldrahnik I'm not sure if I understand what you said, I assume you're using a translator. I'm not using one but not a native english speaker here so apologies.
I couldn't test the driver since it prevented login.

@fededileo Hello there, could you please post here groups of your user? It only looks like your user does not have required groups uinput and input.

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo This time you installed with added --user? And previously without --user flag?

Hi, I made a quick Google search about users and groups (remember, not a programmer lol). I'll paste the output of cat /etc/group down here, guess this is what you're looking for.

I'm not sure but guess this log data didn't appear right after install but instead after using the test script, which turned on the touchpad's backlight.

On the other hand, yes. I installed the driver with the --user suffix. Last time I didn't.

@fededileo Please post here output of cmd groups

from asus-numberpad-driver.

Here you have :)
[federico@zenbook ~]$ groups federico wheel

from asus-numberpad-driver.

Just out of curiosity added my user federico to the groups input and uinput and reinstalled the driver but nothing happened. Log file is intact so it's still the same file you saw. I'll paste here all output of the install script, perhaps there's something interesting in there.

Hi. Here you have the test result. Backlight turns on on two brightness levels. Second is darker than the first one just by a little bit. I've seen it go darker on Windows but that's irrelevant at the moment.

[federico@zenbook tests]$ sudo python3 test_brightness.py [sudo] contraseña para federico: 0x01 0x41 Tested value of registr: 2 (hex: 0x2) Press Enter to continue...

EDIT: I was about to reinstall but the message "service not loaded" got my attention. Perhaps the problem is something that goes wrong when installing rather than after the installation?

Hope you'll fix it soon :)

I've got even more interesting data. I was fiddling around with systemctl and wrote systemctl enable [email protected]. Rebooted and guess what? Login freeze just like the other day. So right now i'm deleting the service on a live iso so I can boot again, but this time I got the error log from the var/log directory.

I wish I wasn't so annoying but if I help you to get this working we'll be helping many people to use their numberpads, hope you'll understand :)

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Sorry, unfortunatelly I am on vacation.

Try to run command groups <your username> and please do a screenshot of command output. I need to see which groups are assigned to your username.

What should solve your problem Is command

usermod -a -G "i2c,input,uinput" <here put your username on laptop>

and reboot.

from asus-numberpad-driver.

Hi, I apologize for the inconvenience. Please feel free to answer when you can.

Here's the output of groups federico
[federico@zenbook ~]$ groups federico federico : federico wheel input uinput

And here's the output of usermod...

[federico@zenbook ~]$ usermod -a -G "i2c,input,uinput" federico usermod: el grupo «i2c» no existe

So the group i2c doesn't exist.

:)

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Hello, I am back so I can respond more regularly.

I read your posts and it still looks like you have only wrongly configured your user permissions to input,uinput & i2c, your user has to have access to input devices, so usually is necessary add user to groups input, uniput and i2c, in case does not exist i2c group I would create the group by command and add your user to group. To check your laptop is configured with these names of groups you can check easily like this (you should see something similar):

ldrahnik@Zenbook-UP5401EA:/sys/class/i2c-dev$ find /dev -group i2c
/dev/i2c-14
/dev/i2c-13

/dev/i2c-6
/dev/i2c-5
/dev/i2c-4
/dev/i2c-3
/dev/i2c-2

ldrahnik@Zenbook-UP5401EA:/sys/class/i2c-dev$ find /dev -group uinput
/dev/uinput

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Try to download and install the latest master branch or execute:

$ groupadd "input"
$ groupadd "uinput"
$ groupadd "i2c"

# and then
$ usermod -a -G "i2c,input,uinput" <your username>

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Can be reopened.

Hi, it has been quite a while since my last update, didn't use my laptop since then.
This is the output you asked me to check.

[federico@zenbook ~]$ /sys/class/i2c-dev$ find /dev -group i2c bash: /sys/class/i2c-dev$: No existe el fichero o el directorio

Translation: file or directory doesn't exist

:)

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo And driver works for you since my recommended commands or not? State Is without any change?

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@ldrahnik Hi! Unfortunately it didn't work. I ran the group-adding commands and installed stable version and it prevented login, booted on live ISO to delete service although I forgot to save the log. Then proceeded to install dev version and rebooted but same thing happened. This is the error log output:

INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Detecting keyboard from string: "N: Name="AT Translated Set 2 keyboard"" INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Set keyboard 2 from H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event2 INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Detecting touchpad from string: "N: Name="ASUE140A:00 04F3:3134 Touchpad"" INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Set touchpad device id 0 from S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/AMDI0010:03/i2c-0/i2c-ASUE140A:00/0018:04F3:3134.0004/input/input17 INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Set touchpad id 5 from H: Handlers=mouse1 event5 INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Touchpad min-max: x 0-3987, y 0-1972 INFO:asus-touchpad-numpad-driver:Numpad min-max: x 200-3787, y 200-1892

I don't know whether it is because you updated the script or because something new is happening because of the new i2c group but the installer asked me if I wanted to enable calculator and asked for reboot. In the past it didn't.

:)

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Unfortunatelly in might happens, warning during installing for autostart systemctl service says aswell the same. And driver except this works or not?

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo There Is a question Do you want autostart driver via systemctl service on your own risk? It may cause black screen during logging info system. Just use as answer letter N during install process. Then try driver.

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@ldrahnik I don't recall seeing that question during install. IIRC questions were:

1. use suggested layout
2. use calculator gesture
3. reboot

:)

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Does make sense in case you use Wayland. I will add this question for Wayland aswell, probably this night. Up to that time you can after install disable systemctl service via sudo systemctl disable Asus... and test driver.

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo git pull latest master

from asus-numberpad-driver.

Hi @ldrahnik, sorry for my late response. I uninstalled the driver but now my keyboard shortcuts are not working and gnome-control-center crashes when I go to the keyboard shortcuts menu item :(

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Can you please attach here the error log of gnome-control-center. And did you test the driver with my previously changed code? I mean with manual starting via sudo systemctl start asus_touchpad_numpad@<your username or root>.service, without answering Y during installation for autostarting via systemctl service (so the driver will not prevent log in anymore).

from asus-numberpad-driver.

Hi @ldrahnik , this is getting longer than I thought. However, this is not a complaint, it's a recognition for your work. Thank you.
Where can I find the gcc logs?
I'll try reinstalling the driver in a couple of hours.

from asus-numberpad-driver.

@fededileo Unfortunately I do not use that tool, I would google the same as you will and I do not recommend call it gcc as gcc is usually called in Linux community GNU Compiler Collection.
