Starting with 0 0 1000 1000? Scaling the max x and y to the screen ratios. Xinput -set-prop "LG Display LGD-MultiTouch" "Evdev Axis Calibration" ?Īnd guess. Presumably if we can find the scaling for one axis it should apply to the other. But we should be able to test coordinates with xinput before we construct a nf to apply them permanently. So you convert the resolution to that.īut that's the extent of my knowledge so we'll likely be guessing. So it should be the active area (screen size?) in cm.s or mm.s converted to micrometers. Some combination of the active area and resolution?
#Dell multitouch how to
Unfortunately I don't know how to figure out the touchscreen coordinates. A pre-Natty release like Lucid might only support single finger touch with the default kernel and evdev driver, once we figure out the correct coordinates to use.
#Dell multitouch install
I'm hoping with multitouch working on evdev (we can install mtview to check) then ginn and its wishes.xml may give us multitouch gestures. Then rely on Canonical's implementing multitouch stuff in Natty. Get the touch working on evdev if possible.

I'm thinking the following might only work for Natty. The scaling to the custom coordinate system is done in-driver and the X server is unaware of the transformation. This feature is required for devices that need to scale to a different coordinate system than originally reported by the kernel (e.g. Option "Calibration" "min-x max-x min-y max-y"Ĭalibrates the X and Y axes for devices that need to scale to a different coordinate system than reported to the X server.
#Dell multitouch driver
What I will try to do this weekend is get a clean install of Natty up, try fixing the Nvidia driver issue and then seeing how it goes from there. There are no extra settings under the MultiTouch mouse. In the mouse configuration program there are 2 mice displayed: the actual mouse and the 'LG Display LGD-MultiTouch'. Is this important? The event codes seem to go to the max resolution. The reason I brought that up is the monitor was unknown in the GNOME Display Settings configuration app and I can't get a resolution higher than 1024x768. (I've tried installing a fresh version of Natty, but didn't try fixing the drivers, and I had no joy with the touchscreen).
#Dell multitouch drivers
I am running a pretty old GeForce2 MX/MX 400 card, and I've had nightmares trying to get the legacy drivers running on Fedora, I'm going to have another bash this weekend with a clean install of Natty. Something broke a while back (when I upgraded to Maverick) and I haven't yet got the proprietory Nvidia ones working again. However I do have an issue with the graphics card. (interrupt to exit)I am running Natty xubutntu, updated from Maverick and beyond that in the past.
