• Finger touch several fails on Sony Vaio Duo 11 running Ubuntu 12.10 (N - Trig DuoSense MultiTouch)

  Hello

  I recently bought a Sony Vaio Duo 11 Ultrabook / Windows 8 tablet hybrid. For my work, I need to use this device with Ubuntu Linux operating system. Most of the devices are fully supported by the kernel linux and ubuntu, but I have some problems with the touch screen. While ubuntu and desktop environment Unity support multitouch, and that N-Trig, which is the manufacturer of the tactile device mentions linux as an operating system supported on his web page, I get errors and wrong behaviour with her. I just describe the issue in this bug report on the ubuntu bug tracker (launchpad).

  https://bugs.Launchpad.NET/Ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/1121379

  I am aware that the camera comes with windows 8 OS and ubuntu or any other operating system is not officially supported, but I need ubuntu for my work, and it's a shame does not take advantage of all the features of this wonderful harware from Sony, due to a misconfiguration or a bad bug. I'd also like to mention that ubuntu OS is the 3rd most popular operating system worldwide, with continusly increasing adoption by users. It would be good for Sony to be able to verify that his harware is fully functional with ubuntu, as it would be to broaden its base of customers, including those who would like to run ubuntu on Sony computer devices.

  Help, advice or contribution from Sony or any member of the community of sony to study and fix this bug will be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Thanks for your reply biege.

  I already contacted the people at the ubuntu community and watched in ubuntu forums and another ubuntu community support resources. The device is quite new and it seems at the present time there are only a few members of the community have ubuntu. I posted the problem here jump 1. To find other owners of 11 Duo who want to run ubuntu on it and 2. To make Sony associated people aware of the problem, because they may have some technical knowledge than ubuntu and X.org community is missing at the moment and could deal with this issue much easier.

  By the way. A member of the forum who reads this and want to run ubuntu on Duo 11 is required to press the button "Affect me too" on the page of the bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/1121379 ). This way we increase the "warmth" of the bug and thus increase the possibility for technicians and developers ubuntu for the note and get to work with her.

• The VAIO Duo 11 stylus pressure is not supported?

  Hi, I just bought Sony Vaio Duo 11 i7 edition with Windows 8 Pro, but I found the pressure of the stylus does not work on CS5.0.4 Photoshop or Photoshop Elements 10, while the pen pressure works on the fresh paint and Artrage 3.5.5. Can anyone help?

  If the driver is not "pressure correctly, then it won't work in Photoshop.»

  2 other apps you mention probably use a different API for the pen pressure - so the old API is broken in your driver.

  You will likely spend by Sony for the driver updates.

  http://www.KB.Sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1023252

  Alternatively, you can try the following steps for wireless connection problem:

  1. Turn on the wireless network adapter using the SmartWi connection utility.
  2. Disconnect the power from the router and modem, if they are separate devices, wait a minute and then reconnect power. Wait for the lights on devices to indicate connection was established and then test the connection.
  3. Configure the autoconfiguration WLAN service to start automatically.
  4. If possible, try another computer on the wireless network.
  5. If another computer is successful, this will ensure that the problem is not with the ISP, modem or router.
  6. Disable the setting for the wireless network adapter power management.
  7. Repair the wireless connection.
  8. Disable the Internet Version 6 (TCP/IPv6).
  9. Computer to start in safe mode and test wireless connection in Internet Explorer.
  10. If the connection works in safe mode, problem is probably caused by software anti-virus or anti-spy.
  11. Check the IP WAN address of the router according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  12. If the router does not have a WAN IP address, problem is probably caused by a problem with the ISP.
  13. Reset the router or modem according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  14. Check if wireless interference are the origin of the problem.
  15. Setting parameters try on WLAN router, such as the frequency of wireless channel or the MAC address cloning.
  16. Change of wireless encryption protocol can solve some problems.

  In case, if the problem persists, restore of the system at any earlier date.

• SONY VAIO DUO 13 - Auto rotation is not selected, and yet the screen is still running.

  I have a problem with the autorotation feature on my laptop sony vaio duo 13 hybrid. Auto rotation feature is disabled but my screen is always turning.

  How can I solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Rob

  This drove me crazy as well.

  The issue is that software Sony turns on automatically auto-rotation whenever reduce you the notebook in tablet mode regardless of any previous or current setting.

  I found a work around:

  Section of the Starter - 'Device Manager' - under the sensors turn off 'HID sensor Collection.

  Now, even if the laptop says automatic rotation of images... it will not be because it is not aware of his orientation.

  Peace finally...

• VAIO DUO 13 slow Wi - Fi - is there a fix available?

  Hi all

  A month ago I have a VAIO DUO 13 as a gift from my father. From the beginning, I liked the design and the performance of this great device. However, I noticed that the WiFi signal is too weak, and data rates are really slow.

  The DUO 13 connects to my router with slower speeds from other devices I own, even from the iPhone 3GS or a laptop of 5 year.

  We took the first DUO return to the store and asked a new, and after almost half a month, I got a new 13 DUO.

  But once again, the SAME PROBLEM! Other owners are having the same problems?

  SONY has announced or informed a fix?

  I really think that to ask for a refund.

  Thank you

  Can someone answer please?
