The input events are simply routed through mtdev, which transforms them to a uniform stream of MT slot events. Software finger tracking is performed when needed, making all devices appear as if they had tracking capabilities. For further details and the source git tree, see http://bitmath.org/code/mtdev/ The v1.0.8 release contains a number of packaging fixes, and one header file change needed for the 2.6.36 release, when MT slots appear in the kernel. Enjoy, Henrik Rydberg
