The "xinput" tool can be used to set the coordinate transformation matrix for an input device. The hard parts are hooking that up to the appropriate udev or evdev events and calculating the correct transform matrix. It would be nice if that happened automatically inside of the X server. We've done it manually as proof-of-concept but it turns out detecting the transformation is very hardware-specific and at the time impossible to get universally correct.
Hopefully, this will be a thing for 14.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

With all in its default configuration, tapping on a window with three fingers added some resize buttons to it, dragging with three fingers dragged the window, and tapping anywhere with four fingers opened Dash. All this does not work any more when running the touch screen with Wacom driver to enable screen rotation (bug 1216065) and a right-click emulation by holding a finger on the place where the right click should happen and then tapping anywhere else with a second finger. It would be great to make the standard Unity gestures (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch) also work under the Wacom driver. I enabled the wacom mode by adding "|Atmel" to the "MatchProduct" line in the "InputClass" section with Identifier "Wacom class" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf (copy of file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf).
