Welcome, Bob :-) Yeah, the first step is to get the Maverick alpha 3 release installed. Then do: $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install utouch Then run apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade to get all the latest work. Note that there's a regression in the latest kernel, so when booting, you'll probably want to select a previous one. Now you're ready to start testing things out. Take a look at this wiki page and following the links in the first part of the testing section: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/#Testing Let us know if you have any questions, either here or on #ubuntu-touch :-) d _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
