I have been testing with Ubuntu 13.04 and 3.9 rc kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline for a couple of weeks. The kernel drivers seems to work good. No error messages or bug traces appear in logs. evtest properly reports BTN_TOUCH events all the time.
But I think I now have stuck on this unity(?) bug also reported on other devices: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1099289 : Randomly, after some time using the touchscreen unity stops registering click events on tapping. Click with tap continues to work on some application parts (e.g. gnome-terminal tabs, or unity shutdown/logout dialog), but launcher, window titlebar and most applications' windows cannot be clicked with tapping. I have also tested with gnome-shell and kde from 13.04 repositories and seem to have similar issues. After some time (especially when doing fast subsequent taps on the screen or trying to drag a scrollbar or type on the on-screen keyboard) the main components of the desktop environment (panels, dialogs etc) do not accept a click with tapping, while the cursor continues to move properly at the tapped point and evtest properly reports BTN_TOUCH events. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1121379 Title: Multiple finger touch fails on Sony Vaio Duo 11 running Ubuntu 12.10 (N-Trig DuoSense MultiTouch) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-image-3.5.0-030500-generic/+bug/1121379/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
