If accepted I > can take care (this is NOT an extortion :) At FOSDEM I found out that the Tias wearing the FOSDEM organization hoodie is actually the same Tias who maintains xinput-calibrator. Long story short: we should send all out patches upstream and he'll have a look at them. He is a big fan of the xorg conf snippet that this patchset introduces. In the long term I think we'll need to see how well the 'tagging' of the evdev itself with the calibration value is working. I looked at it a few years ago and it didn't work for our usecases, but that might have changed. THat should make non-X apps work as well (e.g. QT/e). regards, Koen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iD8DBQFRE3y1MkyGM64RGpERAnfeAKC7FF+MGpDJXCr3hZ9f4HHbQUi3YgCgrrmZ 5UqAi0nnN/7uZ2X0v2x6acU= =iaR5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
