keen (gentoo) interest for me.

I have gentoo on a tablet fujitsu P1610 but I've not had time to look 
into the touch screen setup. Busy now and still need to move from xorg 
1.3 to 1.5. However I intend to take a look at


app-text/xournal

as soon as I have the stylus working.

Don't know how accurate it is, but I found this article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_speech_recognition_software

It basically says no with regard to a complete voice recognition
software, but there are lots of incomplete projects.


As far as touchscreen, there is this video on youtube from 2006
showing touchscreen + Gentoo, so I assume it should be possible once
you find the howto (depending on exactly what you want to do with it):
