Hi Murat thanks for the reference. I made some further changes after testing all this in a clean install today. The synaptics driver didn't work for me, and I am getting the same error as Patrick when using lsinput. So I also added a note on how to look at the Xorg log to get that information. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/AppleMagicTrackpad Once those steps were completed, I added the ubuntu-netbook package and I was able to use multi-touch in the UI too. I tried using the ubuntu-netbook live image from a USB key but hit two bugs: http://pad.lv/629721 http://pad.lv/608382 In short, even if you succeed building a bootable usb drive of netbook edition (by following the workaround on comment #20 of the first bug), when you boot it won't work without proper drivers as it won't present panels. My starting point was a live USB (using the workaround above) of Ubuntu 64-bit standard desktop. Any comments welcome as we try to document this in a way that any one can start experimenting and helping with testing :) Cheers, - -- Fabian Rodriguez, Ubuntu Systems Senior Support Analyst Ubuntu Certified Instructor ~ LPIC-1 / UCP Canonical Corporate Services, Montreal, QC, Canada http://landscape.canonical.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: PGP/Mime available upon request Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJMgXv6AAoJEFQP0XBCvjQJoeYP/2btGayNiuDpG1m44Guf74tv Hn0+5W9cvis6YdRsWoNLY++GWop72PIbTHDXKYhp5giR/YMvPBgqDxoqx7YssLu+ Slv+fJJk8pMdlNE0HROBG+NBic/WSlFEbcJ4yLKFiIfFgIfGjxDo3xIM5Dq6IiYP hw+Ao0XCVUrFmqi+9FHw2BVd6vqbmbsUcg4V0PDObZh1InYek9TlmsJuDqFAx/uG MyhA6lKVkjZZvQUwASJ3sSRqZyueyxtXW63aszdQQWXtHC4c8OSzstp1o/jlE8/X nDrGlj3pKXmxVsCOI/Kud6AyDpHw5+jOETlF5BIjSb4bU7NLuubChMDmOHnIAgVN nXaNlR7IlwM/jtfij6UVW70nL+s3ncoim0EP2G1RtZ831ZKqxmUaMtDtOzoFmvXq VhacwvyYTL5Fm6XWiKbvr0rDNw26kqPy7tfCze/Fe6vgLnhpbdFI/n3pxJU/3uc6 k/qBppU3fD5egZ9LmQ3f1vNO6iDUJCHwDRZCbLbgOZHx/Ac6PqkNm/+WLP91FJ99 JY1v7uRDT6fIdXKMMwgB6ufrTy6bYd/3IHs1jnoTv1geFp3WLVCzd3ssqLr58SMT 2lVvyZRqUXVC+daS8lJdoHFWhvGGguaL+7HlfzwxZiM4iGeYRXVLYammpAX9NjqZ 4jm0PjH2KAcJAT7+CX5b =qp4A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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
