I am sure the Qt multitouch function works by using the MTF image posted at 
http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.0.80/1.0.80.14.20100810.1/handset/images/meego-handset-ia32-netbook-mtf/
  However, per the Qt source code 
qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0-tp/src/gui/kernel/qapplication_x11.cpp, it 
seems the QApplicationprivate::initializeMultitouch_sys() only recognizes 
devices /dev/input/eventX which reports absolute coordination values, so my 
driver (dual touch panel) registers two device nodes, then it can work with the 
provided Qt multitouch sample apps (e.g. fingerpaint).

Best Regards,
Tonny

Follow-on questions: Does Qt's multitouch functionality already work 
currently on MeeGo? Even though Xorg evdev driver isn't yet capable of 
detecting multitouch-capable devices (at least from my understanding)?

If multitouch on Qt does already work, how do we tell Qt about our 
multitouch device, is there some non-default setting that needs to be 
configured?

Thanks.
