Same problem on Arch with kernel 3.14.4-1 and xf86-input-synaptics 1.8.0-1. Xorg log reports "finger width range 0-15" but hw->fingerWidth is always 0.
I'm a little confused about where the problem lies. Is this something to be fixed in the synaptics driver or elsewhere? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245328 Title: Synaptics kernel driver does not report finger width information, breaking usermode driver's palm detection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1245328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
