Public bug reported:
After updating to xenial the finger touch was broken. With an update to
yakkety the finger touch device came back, but it doesn't rotate with
the screen, how it used to in former releases. Pen and eraser are
rotated as expected.
I discovered, that the bug occurs only with linux kernels after 4.4, so
it depends on recent changes in the kernel.
The 'xsetwacom list devices' command generates the output:
Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Pen stylus id: 15 type: STYLUS
Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Finger touch id: 16 type: TOUCH
Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Pen eraser id: 18 type: ERASER
... but with the old linux kernel from utopic (4.2.0) the ids are different:
15 for the stylus (unchanged), 17 for the eraser, 18 for finger touch
This bug affects:
* an updated system how described above
* a fresh installation of yakkety (used to file this bug)
* the zesty daily build
