This set of patches adds multitouch support to the driver. The new API made available in XI2.2 is used to report the location of all contacts, allowing applications to work with the touch points themselves. This is added as a new gesture mode, taking over whenever in-driver gestures have been disabled and at least two fingers have come into contact.
The best way I've found to test this code at the moment is with a gesture recognizer called "Touchegg". It should be in the repositories for Ubuntu 11.10 (and will need compiling from source for 12.04), has RPMs that can located through Google, and has a PKGBUILD available for Arch in the AUR. This changes how data from the kernel is read into the channels for tracking. It has the potential to introduce problems for tablets that don't have touch, and I'd appreciate any Tested-By tags I can get (especially on Protocol 4 [Bamboo] and Generic Protocol devices).
