Public bug reported:
This patch resolves a shortcoming of the ektf3k driver. Previously, the
driver was reporting only multi-touch events. xf86-input-evdev 2.7.3
crashes upon receiving input events from the driver, and 2.8.1 simply
ignores the input device altogether as a workaround for the crash.
This patch adds single-touch ABS_X, ABS_Y, and ABS_PRESSURE axes, as
well as the BTN_TOUCH key. Only the first finger touching reports on
these single-touch axes (while continuing to report on the multi-touch
axes); additional fingers report only on the multi-touch axes.
I have tested this patch on a Nexus 7 running X.org server 1.13.4 and
xf86-input-evdev 2.8.1. Without the patch, evdev ignores all input from
the touchscreen. With the patch, evdev generates mouse events in
response to touches, as one would expect.
