[00:16] <Ethernin> Hey guys, anyone played with multitouch stuff on Nexus 7 running ubuntu?
[00:16] <Ethernin> when i search the repos for multitouch i find:
[00:16] <Ethernin> xserver-xorg-input-mtrack - Multitouch X input driver
[00:16] <Ethernin> xserver-xorg-input-multitouch - Multitouch X input driver
[00:17] <Ethernin> also wondering if magick-rotation is worth the trouble?
[00:17] <Ethernin> would be siiiiiiick
[00:17] <Ethernin> I've got things running pretty darn well with XFCE4, but it would be nice to actually use the touch screen effeciently
[00:18] <Ethernin> one of the problems is by default you can drag the windows around or maximize or close the windows via touchscreen....
[00:18] <Ethernin> which is pretty lame considering it works so well in gnome-classic and lxde ect
[00:21] <Ethernin> holla?
[00:25] <Tassadar> don't worry, there are people still awake and coding, but as for me, I did not really tried multitouch on n7)
[00:25] <Tassadar> *haven't...dammit 1AM
[00:37] <Ethernin> lol
[00:37] <Ethernin> right on thanks man
[00:37] <Ethernin> Tassadar, it's usually 1am here and im the only one ranting!
[00:37] <Ethernin> lol
[00:38] <Ethernin> yeah i saw some sweet links of people using it, not on the Nexus7 but i thought id give it a try
[00:38] <Ethernin> going to look up the system requirements to see if it's even doable
[00:38] <Ethernin> but i figure it should be
[00:38] <Tassadar> it must, on android it can handle up to 10 fingers
[00:39] <Tassadar> or at least 10 fingers, because I don't have any more to test
[00:39] <Ethernin> hahahaha
[00:39] <Ethernin> totally
[00:40] <Ethernin> i've been messing with a lot of different desktop environments trying to find one that's both stable and usable
[00:40] <Ethernin> unity is just too damn slow, and i haven't been able to get unity2d to work
[00:41] <lilstevie> Ethernin, there isn't really much point in those packages, evdev does multitouch, you just need a wm that supports it
[00:41] <lilstevie> unity2d doesn't exist anymore
[00:41] <Ethernin> i did however try, xfce4, lxde, and gnome-classic via fallback
[00:41] <Ethernin> yeah no kidding
[00:42] <Ethernin> not in raring that's for sure
[00:42] <Zero_Chaos> evdev does multitouch? but how to enable it?
[00:42] <Ethernin> evdev?
[00:42] <Zero_Chaos> Ethernin: it's the main keyboard and mouse xorg driver
[00:42] <lilstevie> Zero_Chaos, you don't need to enable it, it already tracks multiple fingers
[00:43] <lilstevie> Zero_Chaos, you need a part of the windows manager to track
[00:43] <Zero_Chaos> lilstevie: ahh
[00:43] <Ethernin> lilstevie, awesome what part of the windows manager ?
[00:44] <lilstevie> Zero_Chaos, or something like utouch-geis
[00:44] <lilstevie> Ethernin, I'm not sure, I don't care enough
[00:45] <Ethernin> lilstevie, sweet, ill look around
[00:45] <Zero_Chaos> Ethernin: search for utouch and have fun.
[00:45] <Zero_Chaos> Ethernin: I'm going to five guys
[00:45] <Zero_Chaos> :-)
[00:45] <Ethernin> hahaha nice Zero_Chaos
[00:46] <Zero_Chaos> bbiaf
[00:46] <Ethernin> Zero_Chaos, yeah going to take a break myself
[00:46] <Ethernin> Zero_Chaos, ill be back in a bit
[00:48] <Ethernin> ah yes, xserver-xorg-input-multitouch - Multitouch X input driver comes up

[13:00] <Julle131> I'm trying to make a kernel boot android 4.1 and Ubuntu. Got any tips? I'm a beginner.
[13:01] <Julle131> There is a kernel that can boot Ubuntu for my device, and a kernel that can boot 4.1. But no kernel that can do them both.
[13:02] <lilstevie> some things required for android break ubuntu, and vice versa
[13:05] <Julle131> Well, I keep looking then. I don't know does these matter, but the board is OMAP 4460 and kernel version is 3.0.8+ for both kernels.
