sorry for misunderstanding, let me try again. I _was_ using AbsX/Y valuators before I realized that for my case it is easier to use root_x/y. However I was getting wrong values from those valuators - here is the output of the xinput test-xi2 tool when I touch in the bottom right corner of my screen: EVENT type 20 (TouchMotion) device: 10 (10) detail: 86 flags: root: 1258.53/769.11 event: 179.53/170.11 buttons: modifiers: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: 1: 236.00 3: 1259.00 4: 769.00 windows: root 0x14e event 0x4600001 child 0x4600001 However, from the kernel I see correct values - here is the output of the evtest app: Input driver version is 1.0.1 Input device ID: bus 0x3 vendor 0x1b96 product 0x1 version 0x110 Input device name: "N-Trig MultiTouch" Supported events: Event type 0 (Sync) Event type 1 (Key) Event code 330 (Touch) Event type 3 (Absolute) Event code 0 (X) Value 9327 Min 0 Max 9600 Fuzz 75 Event code 1 (Y) Value 7078 Min 0 Max 7200 Fuzz 78 Event code 48 (Touch Major) Value 0 Min 0 Max 9600 Fuzz 200 Event code 49 (Touch Minor) Value 0 Min 0 Max 7200 Fuzz 150 Event code 52 (Orientation) Value 0 Min 0 Max 1 Event code 53 (Position X) Value 0 Min 0 Max 9600 Fuzz 75 Event code 54 (Position Y) Value 0 Min 0 Max 7200 Fuzz 78 Event: time 1291987102.863657, -------------- Config Sync ------------ Event: time 1291987102.863667, -------------- Report Sync ------------ Event: time 1291987102.873635, type 3 (Absolute), code 53 (Position X), value 9394 Event: time 1291987102.873641, type 3 (Absolute), code 54 (Position Y), value 7029 Event: time 1291987102.873643, type 3 (Absolute), code 52 (Orientation), value 0 Event: time 1291987102.873645, type 3 (Absolute), code 48 (Touch Major), value 360 Event: time 1291987102.873647, type 3 (Absolute), code 49 (Touch Minor), value 308 Event: time 1291987102.873650, -------------- Config Sync ------------ Event: time 1291987102.873659, -------------- Report Sync ------------ As you can see when using XI2.1 I the AbsX axis has range 0 to 9600, however touching in the bottom-right corner gives me value 1259 (the resolution of my display is 1280x800), hence someone on the X side modifies those values. -- Best regards, Denis. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev Post to : multi-touch-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
