Re: Statler^Wheezy / Statler^Sid - known issues *with solutions*

Waldorf issue: annoying
The battery meter doesn't show up in the system tray, even though it is in autostart.

Solution:
Add the following line after the lines about starting the volumeicon:

## Enable power management AFTER volume
(sleep 30s && xfce4-power-manager) & 

And remove the original xfce4-power-manager entry

Re: Statler^Wheezy / Statler^Sid - known issues *with solutions*

Waldorf: Catalyst 12.6 and Xorg 1.13 aren't friends

Solution:

1. Add these repos to downgrade Xorg

deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20120515T220710Z/ wheezy main
deb-src http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20120515T220710Z/ wheezy main

2. Create the file /etc/apt/preferences.d/60xorg_rollback.pref

Package: xserver-xorg*
Pin: origin "snapshot.debian.org"
Pin-Priority: 1001

3. In order to prevent apt check the date in the repos (this mechanism prevents accidental installation of older software), we create a file called /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/60ignore_repo_date_check

Acquire
{
Check-Valid-Until "false";
}

4- We make the changes and downgrade xserver-xorg package

as root:

# apt-get update
# apt-get dist-upgrade

5. Install AMD Catalyst 12.6

On sony vaio notebooks
taping the touchpad doesn't work

solution in the autostart replace the egrep command with the following:

if egrep -iq 'Sony Vaio Jogdial' /proc/bus/input/devices; then
    synclient VertEdgeScroll=1 &
    synclient TapButton1=1 &
fi

@Blackout:  Is this after a migration from Statler to Wheezy/Waldorf or Sid, or is this on a clean Waldorf install?  If the latter, I can fork this to the Development area.
