[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 242590] Re: udev rules should be installed by default
Yes, evdev supports touchscreens now, and evtouch doesn't even build, so it's going to be removed from the archive. And because of that, this bug can be closed. ** Changed in: xf86-input-evtouch (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-evtouch in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242590 Title: udev rules should be installed by default ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 242590] Re: udev rules should be installed by default
great job Soren! It's nice to have a unified driver, much easier to support etc. i was just looking through the evdev and evtouch code and trying to understand if evtouch has some sort of right-click emulation via LONG_TOUCH, which is the only other thing I would miss in evdev (although it might not be that usable anyway) On Wed, May 5, 2010 at 10:30 PM, Soren Hauberg so...@hauberg.org wrote: @eric I did the initial implementation of touchscreen support in 'evdev', so I'm glad that works for you :-) It should, however, be said that 'evtouch' does quite a bit more than 'evdev' (it has more options).

i have been using evdev for a few releases now, on a variety of fujitsu and panasonic notebooks. it seems to do everything evtouch does, so I'd vote to close this. -- udev rules should be installed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-evtouch in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 242590] Re: udev rules should be installed by default
Eventually I think -evtouch is going to go away in favor of just using -evdev. We can keep this bug report open until then, even though the hardware is no longer available for testing. ** Changed in: xf86-input-evtouch (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- udev rules should be installed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-evtouch in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[This is an automatic notification.] Hi Soren, This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you test if it still occurs on Lucid? Please note we also provide technical support for older versions of Ubuntu, but not in the bug tracker.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 242590] Re: udev rules should be installed by default
I don't know how to reply to that. I realise that people are busy and that you have to resort to automated replies sometimes, but this reply does not make sense to me in the context of the bug report. I reported this bug two years ago, but (as I have previously stated) I no longer have access to the hardware needed, so I cannot do as you request. I am, however, quite certain that the bug report is still valid as it simply concerns the installation of the package and not the actual driver. -- udev rules should be installed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242590 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-evtouch in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Just a follow-up on Soren's comment, I have been testing xinput_calibrator [1], it is excellect, with a goal of supporting calibration of all drivers, and export to udev, xorg, xinput command, hal. This should be integrated in Ubuntu.
