For example $ xte "mousemove 10 10" moves mouse pointer to 10+10 and $ xte "mouseclick 1" clicks using left mouse button. You can find xte in xautomation package of debian or upstream at http://hoopajoo.net/projects/xautomation.html > If you want to experiment, install this package > http://pvtrace.com/literki_0.0.2-r4_armv4t.ipk Pointer to source code would be nice. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

The problem is that when you're touching the touchpad, that's where the pointer will normally be moved, and I don't think X supports two pointers to have at two different places. That's why I have to draw a fake pointer. When you click the "L" or "R" buttons, the pointer is now free and I can move it to the location of the fake pointer to simulate the click. > > > If you want to experiment, install this package > > http://pvtrace.com/literki_0.0.2-r4_armv4t.ipk > > Pointer to source code would be nice. > > http://pvtrace.com/literki-0.0.2.tar.gz ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

What if you EVIOGRAB the touchscreen device while the touchscreen is pressed on top of your app to prevent X from seeing touchscreen events during that time? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Wikipedia : - MPX was merged into the current development version of X.Org on 26 May 2008 - Xinput2 (XI2) which is the second official stable API release of the XInput X Window Extension, containing MPX was merged into the current development version of X.Org on 3 Jun 2009 You'll need to wait for server 1.7 (X11R7.5, cf. http://www.x.org/wiki/Releases/7.5 ), but it's coming...
