[Bug 1645341] Re: Wacom serial: Screen rotation triggers pen/eraser rotation but not for finger touch

 

@Onno: no, #4 is a different bug, it's already fixed in kernel 4.7 - see here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1613134
but it may be related somehow, because it depends on the kernel version if it works or not.

To remember: 
Kernel < 4.4 = OK
Kernel 4.4 .. 4.6 - touch gone
Kernel 4.7 and later - touch resumed, but finger touch not rotated with screen

Title:
  Wacom serial: Screen rotation triggers pen/eraser rotation but not for
  finger touch

Status in xf86-input-wacom package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After updating to xenial the finger touch was broken. With an update
  to yakkety the finger touch device came back, but it doesn't rotate
  with the screen, how it used to in former releases. Pen and eraser are
  rotated as expected.

  I discovered, that the bug occurs only with linux kernels after 4.4,
  so it depends on recent changes in the kernel.

  The 'xsetwacom list devices' command generates the output:
  Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Pen stylus	id: 15	type: STYLUS    
  Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Finger touch	id: 16	type: TOUCH     
  Wacom Serial Penabled 2FG Touchscreen Pen eraser	id: 18	type: ERASER    

  ... but with the old linux kernel from utopic (4.2.0) the ids are different:
  15 for the stylus (unchanged), 17 for the eraser, 18 for finger touch

  This bug affects:
  * an updated system how described above
  * a fresh installation of yakkety (used to file this bug)
  * the zesty daily build
