I created two master pointers, one is attached to an USB mouse, the other to a Synaptics touchpad.
The first one (controlled by mouse) reports absolute screen coordinates with evtype == XI_Motion - the values range from (0,0) to (xres,yres). While window coordinates would be nice, that is about what I expect. However, the second one (controlled by touchpad) reports values in the range (1472,1408) to (5472,4448). This is also reported in the Xorg.log by the synaptics driver. How can I map these to screen coordinates? As the pointer still moves in screen coordinates, the mapping must already exist somewhere, I assume.. I know that this is quite beta still, so I'd be very grateful about some hints..
