[Linuxwacom-devel] Bamboo Wireless Support
Hi all, If you have one of the newer Bamboo tablets and also have the optional wireless module then I have some good news for you. I have an initial driver to add wireless support. I'm looking for people with the optional wireless module to help test with the various versions of the 3rd gen Bamboo tablet and different USB hubs. You need to be comfortable with git and building linux kernels since I currently only have it as a branch off input-wacom. Basic directions to get the new driver and test it: git clone git://github.com/cbagwell/input-wacom.git -b wireless_draft cd input-wacom ./autogen.sh cd 2.6.38 sudo rmmod wacom sudo insmod ./wacom.ko I hope to add rfkill support next so that the receiver plays nice in airplane mode. After that, I'll see if there are other options the Windows driver has that seem useful under Linux as well (it has a power savings setting that looks interesting). Chris -- Ridiculously easy VDI.

Re: [Linuxwacom-devel] Multitouch?
In reply to my own message, I've been helped on IRC, particularly by Carlos Garnacho who informed me that recent evdev has gotten MT support just 10 days ago. While this is generally good news that MT eventually makes a stable appearance in evdev, the implementation differs from anything that was previously attempted and is also not supported by QT. So I guess I'm stuck without MT for now. Thanks everyone.

If so then check out Peter's blog on near term X plumbing > updates: http://who-t.blogspot.com/ Hello Chris, Hello Ben, I want to expose MT to the toolkit as it expects it. Qt supports multitouch. MT. Clicking at two places at once (vmpk, a virtual MIDI keyboard has said MT support and in order to play accords I will need MT). Can Peter's things help me with that? I also found something at the institute where Ben Tissoires works: http://lii-enac.fr/en/architecture/linux-input/index.html#xorg Sounds exactly like what I need, doesn't it? Creating an arbitrary number of subdevices. Unfortunally, it is very outdated and doesn't compile. I'm still not sure how this is supposed to work in the long term. Currently, in order to get MPX (which I think is the only method to transpart MT to toolkits), I will have to statically create new master devices for each pointer and reattach the respective devices. That means I got several pointers on the screen at every point in time. Shouldn't this be handled a bit more... flexibly? Assuming Ben's driver created "Subdevices on the fly", would it also create their masters on the fly? Anyway, it doesn't compile. Do you have any further tips?
