Enable (Some) Multi-Touch Gestures in Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| As the author notes, three-finger tapping for a right-click is kind of 
| hit-and-miss, and many users may not want any kind of tap-to-click powers at 
| all. Luckily, it's easy to remove the last line or two from the config file 
| posted to disable it—or, in systems like Ubuntu, simply disable tap-to-click 
| from the Mouse configuration.

Community Live: Newcastle Maker Faire, March 14-15, 2009

| The chaps from BBC backstage were showing off some cool bits and pieces from
| the BBC's R&D department, including an open source multi-touch sensor which
| makes cunning use of a web-cam and can just about manage to track 10 fingers
| (though not so easily on the prototype they were showing because the surface
| was so small). They also showed a _very_ clever software image stabilisation
| system which worked with the picture stream from dumb, but high definition
| cameras.

ATI Linux Drivers Gain Support For Unreleased RS880

,----[ Quote ]
| AMD's current flagship offering when it comes to integrated ATI graphics is
| the Radeon HD 3300 / 790GX. This IGP was introduced last fall as a minor
| refresh to the Radeon HD 3200 / 780G Chipset. As something new for consumers
| to consider, soon it looks like AMD will be introducing the RS880. The RS880
| will likely have a marketing name within the Radeon HD 4000 series and will
| be their fastest integrated graphics solution, well, for now.

Multi-touch support for MPX [in Linux]

,----[ Quote ]
| MPX already supported multiple input devices. Which blows pretty much all
| assumptions in user interfaces (input) out of the water. Now I've gone one
| step further and added support for multi-touch displays. Have a look at this
| video...
