Hi all, per the bug Aidan & I had going @ https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98575 , Peter H has suggested that the bug is likely one that was in xserver-xorg-input-evdev-1:2.10.2 that has already been fixed in xserver-xorg-input-evdev-1:2.10.3 - so the fix for Ubuntu now is to update the 16.10 repos to the next version and we should all get pressure working again.
In the meantime, I've been out of the ubuntu loop for awhile - what's the current kosher way for me to upgrade my package now but still get ubuntu upstream updates in the future? any experienced ubuntu users want to chime in on this? would help the newer users as well to discover that fixes to their problems are already done :D -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639337 Title: Ubuntu 16.10 Abs_pressure not reported from kernel evdev to xserver- xorg-evdev Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Please refer to bug filed with freedesktop.org: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98575 I modified a driver for the Bosto Tablet 22HD and others, this has been working without problems across the last several releases and continues to work with 16.04.1 LTS. When I upgraded to 16.10, pressure readings are lost from all applications, X & Y data still visible. evtest shows correct EV_ data for ABS_X ABS_Y and ABS_PRESSURE, but when xinput is used. xinput --list --long <device> The Valuator for pressure is listed, but no changes occur as the tool is used. The parameters of the Valuator can still be modified using xinput tweaking tools, but no pressure reported. All X apps requiring pressure data fail. I made a fresh install of 16.10, loaded the driver .... same issue. I run 16.04.1 LTS, everything fine. I have others users of my driver code also using 16.04.1 without issue.
