Not exactly the same -- with 3 fingers, BTN_TOOL_TRIPLETAP is reported instead of BTN_TOOL_FINGER. But yes, only a single position is reported, because that's all the hardware provides with three and four fingers. For whatever reason it gives two coordinates with two fingers, but only one with three or four, so that's all the driver is able to report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873482 Title: elantech: Touchpad always reports 3 finger tap as 1 finger tap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/873482/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
