2012-07-05Input: MT - Include win8 supportHenrik Rydberg1-26/+92
The newly released HID protocol for win8 multitouch devices is capable of transmitting more information about each touch. In particular, it includes details useful for touch alignment. This patch completes the MT protocol with the ABS_MT_TOOL_X/Y events, and documents how to map win8 devices.

2010-12-16input: mt: Add hovering distance axisHenrik Rydberg1-1/+8
Touch devices capable of hovering, i.e., fingers detected a distance from the surface, are not supported by the current input MT protocol. This patch adds ABS_MT_DISTANCE, which may be used to indicate the distance between the contact and the surface. Signed-off-by: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se>

2010-03-21Input: clarify the no-finger event in multitouch protocolHenrik Rydberg1-0/+16
The current documentation does not explicitly specify how to report zero fingers, leaving a potential problem in the driver implementations and giving no parsing directive to userland. This patch defines two equally valid ways. Signed-off-by: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>
