| nerochiaro | hi everyone, i'm trying to get a magic touchpad device to work with ubuntu, and while unity seems to recognize 3- and 4-finger touches it seems to ignore any other gesture. any pointers where to start looking ? | 10:18 |
|---|---|---|
| RAOF | nerochiaro: What other gestures are you trying? IIRC those are pretty much the set of supported ones. | 10:27 |
| nerochiaro | RAOF: isn't there a 3finger swipe to switch windows or workspaces ? | 10:27 |
| RAOF | I don't think so? | 10:28 |
| RAOF | You *used* to be able to use 3-fingers to move windows around, but I think that gesture got dropped. | 10:28 |
| RAOF | Too few people have touchpads capable of tracking more than one finger :( | 10:29 |
| mlankhorst | I really? | 10:39 |
| nerochiaro | RAOF: i see. and is there any test app i can use to verify that other multitouch events are actually recognized and sent to windows ? | 10:40 |
| RAOF | nerochiaro: ‘xinput test-xi2’ will show all the touches X sees (as different valuators) | 10:42 |
| nerochiaro | RAOF: i dont' seem to be getting any event for 2 finger gestures. 3 or more generate TouchUpdate events | 10:46 |
| RAOF | Hm. 2 fingers might be translated into scroll events, I forget. | 10:48 |
| nerochiaro | RAOF: and 2 finger pinch is what i really need to test | 10:48 |
| nerochiaro | RAOF: doesn't seem like the case, or at least windows with scroll bars don't seem to react to them | 10:49 |
| nerochiaro | and xinput doesn't show them as scroll neither | 10:49 |
| Prf_Jakob | Is bug 1293384 a known bug? | 12:55 |
| ubottu | bug 1293384 in Compiz "Compiz CPU usage dramatically increased in Ubuntu 14.04" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1293384 | 12:55 |
| tjaalton | guess so | 12:59 |
| tjaalton | maybe try #ubuntu-unity? | 12:59 |
| mlankhorst | Prf_Jakob: haven't heard of it, but it could be due to unity blur effects | 12:59 |
| Prf_Jakob | Okay thanks | 13:00 |
| tjaalton | right | 13:02 |
| tjaalton | it should be possible to drop some effects for such cases | 13:02 |
