Related discussion in #ubuntu-desktop 18:24 < seb128> "we don't map touchscreens to an output, we map it to a portion of the desktop." 18:24 < seb128> " don't know how to fix this other than a database in the style of libwacom" 18:24 < tjaalton> that doesn't sound too promising.. 18:24 < mlankhorst> probably needs to happen :/ 18:26 < bregma> big problem with a generalized solution to that touchscreen problem is that there is no association between the touch device and the display 18:26 < mlankhorst> yeah.. 18:27 < bregma> not even at the kernel level 18:28 < mlankhorst> but for now assuming touchscreen maps to the eDP or integrated screen would be best bet :/ 18:29 < bregma> it would makea reasonable starting default but isn't anything like a good solution since there are lots of external touchscreens out there 18:30 < seb128> yeah 18:31 < mlankhorst> how are they handled on other platforms? 18:31 < seb128> it would also mean that if I dock my 3 years non-touch laptop on an external touch monitor things would be the wrong way around 18:31 < tjaalton> but confirmed.. 18:31 < tjaalton> *bug 18:31 < mlankhorst> tjaalton: which? 18:31 < tjaalton> the touch one 18:32 < mlankhorst> ah 18:32 < tjaalton> i've got this lovely harris beach sdp.. 18:32 < bregma> mlankhorst, how are they handled on other platforms? poorly, just like high-DPI 18:32 < tjaalton> now excuse me while it dist-upgrades trusty->trusty for the next two hours.. 18:33 < tjaalton> hmm I have win8 on this too 18:35 < mlankhorst> could we make it a ui thing perhaps? 18:36 < mlankhorst> let the user suffer for next few years until things standardize :/
