Recently spent some time working on getting multitouch support working under RHEL6 on a Dell XT2.
Thanks to a lot of great info out there it ended up not being too bad of a process, but left me with some questions on what the "official" direction of Multitouch under X is. There seem to be several projects out there providing support for the N-Trig chipset in my XT2 under Xorg: - Linux Wacom (xf86-input-wacom) - xf86-input-multitouch (http://bitmath.org/code/multitouch/) - evdev / X Input 2.1 I am presuming the latter will be the "blessed" way, but could anyone comment? Are the above drivers / methods "competing"? [ BTW, I ended up using the xf86-input-wacom driver, but maybe should have gone the evdev route (though maybe I would have had to mangle my Xorg install ... ] Also came across this thread[1] asking about setting up an Xorg wiki page for multitouch development centralization. Doesn't look like this was ever done? Is there still interest? Thanks, Ray [1] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-devel/2010-May/008287.html _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: [email protected]
