Hi Tom. First of all, thank you for easystroke, it's a 'must have'
software in a tablet.
I don't use ubuntu anymore, I've moved to Arch. I've found that
easystroke behavior depends on if evdev driver is built with or without
mtdev, so I have just tested
- easystroke 0.5.5.1 from Arch repo
- easystroke 0.5.4 compiled from sources, replacing 'lboost_serialization_mt'
with 'lboost_serializationt' in Makefile
and
- xf86-input-evdev 2.7.3 from Arch repo (mtdev is a dependence)
- xf86-input-evdev 2.7.3 built from Arch PKGBUILD but removing the mtdev
dependence
I have 2 scroll gestures, named 'Gesto 3' and 'Gesto 4'. These are the
results of the 4 combinations, I've repeated 3-4 times the gestures in
gnome-terminal. By the way, I use LXDE with openbox.
*** easystroke 0.5.4+evdev without mtdev: scroll is PERFECT! (there are other
problems with the touchscreen, but not the scroll) ***

The behaviour I had in Ubuntu 12.04 (also LXDE+openbox) when I post this
bug was exactly the same than xf86-input-evdev with mtdev: 0.5.4 is
PERFECT, 0.5.5.1 does NOTHING. I think that ubuntu package is called
xserver-xorg-input-evdev 2.7.0, I suppose it's built with mtdev support.
Wish this information helps. Please ask for any test I can do in my
tablet.
