I'll add something like above but I think the logic is slightly different. The code handles all the generic tablet and Wacom Protocol 4/5 cases just fine today. The issue is limited to working with "generic touchpads" and "generic touchscreens" I think. The later are the only ones that do not send BTN_TOOL_FINGER as best I know. So I'll add something similar to evdev's EVDEV_TOUCHPAD and EVDEV_TOUCHSCREEN. Since this is same concept as knowing when to set relative vs. absolute mode, the flag WCM_LCD probably already has correct meaning. Roughly: case BTN_TOOL_FINGER: if (common->wcmProtocol != WCM_PROTOCOL_GENERIC) /* this is PAD device on Wacom device. Setup as PAD. */ else /* This is a generic touchpad in relative mode. Setup like DOUBLETAP on a Wacom. We will ignore any accompanying BTN_TOUCH for setup phase. */ break; case BTN_TOUCH: if (common->wcmProtocol == WCM_PROTOCOL_GENERIC && TabletHasFeature(common, WCM_LCD) /* This is a generic touchscreen in absolute mode. Setup like DOUBLETAP on a Wacom. */ else /* This is touch sent with protocol 4/5 devices or with tochpads. Ignore during setup because it was setup with BTN_TOOL_* event. */ break; Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
