In this bug:

 

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=602733

 

I am taking the position that remapping for Xinerama isn't the job of an input 
device driver, but that GDK should take care of it.  Note the patch I submitted 
allows you to specify "Current Monitor" as the coordinate space binding, so 
that Cintiq and similar devices will work correctly in multi-screen 
environments.

 

I know about the workaround of setting the coordinate mapping to the entire 
virtual desktop, but I would say that is sub-optimal, because it does not 
survive displays being added/removed and it does not allow you switch active 
monitors.

 

Would someone from this list like to comment?  Do you plan to have the driver 
solve this instead (and act like the mouse or core pointer device?)  Would you 
agree that this is out of bounds / level violation to solve this in the driver?

 

Cheers and thanks for all your hard work,

 

Ammo
