Title:
  [Touch] No touch works at all

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Right after installing 14.04 finger touch worked all right with
  Chromium (Wacom touchscreen): I could at least scroll pages and go
  back/forward. However, at some point, after one of updates, it
  stopped. I have no idea how it was before, but following code added to
  the /usr/bin/chromium-browser brings touch back:

  finger_id=$(xinput list | grep "Finger touch")
  if [ ${#finger_id} != 0 ]; then
    finger_id=${finger_id#*id=}
    finger_id=$(expr match "$finger_id" '\([0-9]*\).*')
    CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --touch-devices=$finger_id"
  fi

  I'm not professional in coding, so this may be clumsy, but perhaps a
  better version of the above can be added when the script is updated.

  Attached, a patched version of the script.
