[20:19] <cr3> if anyone happens to have a touchscreen detected as a multitouch device, would you mind sharing the output of xinput --list --long?
[20:39] <dandrader> cr3, I have one
[20:39] <dandrader> cr3, just a sec
[20:39] <cr3> dandrader: thanks, let me know if you need my email address if it'll make things easier
[20:40] <dandrader> I can just pastebin it
[20:40] <cr3> dandrader: that works for me
[20:40] <dandrader> cr3, that's the relevant bit http://paste.ubuntu.com/1248302/
[20:41] <dandrader> but I don't recall if the events when I tested, came from "N-Trig MultiTouch" or "N-Trig Touchscreen"
[20:42] <cr3> dandrader: probably from "N-Trig MultiTouch" since it's the only one with the XITouchClass class
[20:43] <dandrader> I always wondered why there are those two virtual devices if my laptop has only one touchscreen (what's the function of each) but I never mustered the energy to investigate the answer
[20:43] <dandrader> sould be
[20:43] <cr3> dandrader: I've been wondering what the purpose of the Virtual core pointer device that seems to be a superset of other devices
[20:45] <dandrader> one thing is that many input devices can control the same, single, mouse pointer on the screen
[20:45] <dandrader> likewise for keyboard/text input
[20:45] <dandrader> or maybe that's the whole point
[20:46] <cr3> dandrader: hm, that's indeed weird about input devices
