Hello Shawn, or anyone else affected, Accepted xf86-input-wacom into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input- wacom/1:0.36.1-0ubuntu1.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: xf86-input-wacom (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu.

[Test case] Install the update, note that the touchscreen behaviour is better. [Regression potential] From the upstream commit: "Note that this change will effectively cause a feature regression for users of other environments that do *not* have their own gesture engines (Cinnamon, KDE, MATE, XFCE, etc.). Users will want to add an xorg.conf.d snippet with `Option "Gesture" "on"` to bring back the functionality." but at least I (tjaalton) haven't heard of any complaints since we've disabled gestures in focal (Nov 21st), so the warning might be a bit too pessimistic about the impact. -- /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-wacom.conf as shipped, has this: Section "InputClass" Identifier "Wacom touchscreen class" MatchProduct "Wacom|WACOM|PTK-540WL|ISD-V4" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" MatchIsTouchscreen "true" Driver "wacom" EndSection The result is that on my Yoga 920, in a plain X11 session (running openbox in my case), the touchscreen acts like a broken mouse: there is no multi-touch capability in Qt Quick applications, and clicking isn't quite right either. I also verified it with Peter Hutterer's old cairo-based mt-touch test program. I suspect we will get some users mistakenly writing up Qt bugs about this if you don't ship a fix. (Seems to me that already happened at least once, actually.) Yes, the touchscreen is made by Wacom, but wacom_drv.so has historically been only for Wacom tablets and in-screen stylus digitizers, and IMO that continues to be the case. libinput is a much better choice of driver for this hardware (so is evdev for that matter), so I changed it to Driver "libinput" and got it working. (Wayland uses libinput, so in a wayland session, touch already works fine in Qt apps on this hardware.) I'm one of the Qt Quick maintainers, most concerned with touch handling, and I've also written some of the Qt xcb code for dealing with XInput touch and tablet devices. So if you think that there's something wrong with Qt, such that it should still work anyway to use a wacom driver for a Wacom touchscreen, let me know. These AES devices are still new to me (that's why I got a Yoga, to try it out).
