brendand | hi, is it possible to determine the difference between a touchscreen and an MT touchpad in xinput? | 14:23 |
---|---|---|
cnd | brendand: yes, use xinput list <device id | device name> | 14:25 |
cnd | look for the touch class | 14:25 |
cnd | it will be dependent for a touchpad | 14:26 |
cnd | and direct for a touchscreen | 14:26 |

brendand | cnd, do you guys have any tests which confirm a touchscreen is working properly? | 15:03 |
cnd | brendand: it's an area we are lacking a bit in, tbh | 15:04 |
cnd | the qt4 demos have a fingerpaint app | 15:04 |
cnd | you should be able to test your touchscreen with it | 15:04 |
cnd | gestures in unity should work as well | 15:05 |
cnd | three touches to move a window around, for example | 15:05 |

brendand | cnd - so the scope of our testing is actually that we want to a.) detect that the system has a MT touchscreen or touchpad (and which one), b.) test that it detects multiple contacts (not interested really in testing gestures) | 16:18 |
cnd | brendand: if qt fingerpaint works, then it should be working | 16:18 |
cnd | if you want a text based test | 16:18 |
cnd | you could use xinput test-xi2 | 16:18 |
brendand | cnd - i tried test-xi2 | 16:19 |
brendand | cnd - any tips on confirming that more than one contact has been detected? | 16:20 |
cnd | brendand: what did it show? | 16:20 |
cnd | you should watch the detail of the touch events | 16:20 |
cnd | the detail is the touch ID | 16:20 |
brendand | cnd - i don't have a device in physical proximity. i'm testing remotely in a lab | 16:20 |
cnd | if you are getting touch begin….touch updates….touch ends with multiple detail values at the same time | 16:20 |
cnd | then you are getting multiple touches at the same time | 16:20 |
brendand | cnd - sounds like i'll need to write a script to process the output of test-xi2 | 16:21 |
brendand | cnd - thanks | 16:21 |
