Sony Vaio [Solved]

After updating to latest kernel it seems right click no longer works. microcode is loaded as per news item.

 dmesg | grep microcode

Re: Sony Vaio [Solved]

DId you update grub (or boot loader) as per
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mi … de_Updates

I dont see word "early" in your dmesg. (assuming intel CPU because u installed intel-ucode package)

Example line:

[    0.000000] CPU0 microcode updated early to revision 0xa0b, date = 2010-09-28

Btw not sure if that have any effect on right click!

Re: Sony Vaio [Solved]

Hello,
I have exactly the same issue than MrGreen (and I also own a vaio computer), my dmesg shows the same lines. I also have followed the wiki about microcode but right click still doesn't want to work.
If any one have a clue ...
For the moment I have created a keyboard shortcut with "xdotool click right"...

Re: Sony Vaio [Solved]

I also have this issue with a Sony Vaio laptop. I haven't found a solution yet.

My dmesg does contain the "updated early" line:

$ dmesg|grep microcode
[    0.000000] CPU0 microcode updated early to revision 0x4, date = 2013-06-28
[    0.207861] CPU1 microcode updated early to revision 0x4, date = 2013-06-28
[    3.657103] microcode: CPU0 sig=0x20655, pf=0x10, revision=0x4
[    3.657112] microcode: CPU1 sig=0x20655, pf=0x10, revision=0x4
[    3.657117] microcode: CPU2 sig=0x20655, pf=0x10, revision=0x4
[    3.657123] microcode: CPU3 sig=0x20655, pf=0x10, revision=0x4

Re: Sony Vaio [Solved]

This seems to be a kernel regression. What kernel are you using? I was having the same issue on my sony vaio with kernels 3.17.1 and 3.17.2.
Downgrading to kernel 3.16.3-2 fixed this issue for me. See if that works for you.
