Synaptics lets Linux gadgets give the iPad 10 fingers
,----[ Quote ]
| Appleâs multitouch finger controls on the
| iPad have inspired a wave of copycat tablet
| computers that will be out later this year.
| Those copycats are likely to get help from
| touch-sensor company Synaptics, which is
| announcing today that it has created a
| Linux version of its multitouch sensor
| system.

Multitouch Gestures on Linux? You Got It!!!
,----[ Quote ]
| Most Linux distros donât yet support
| multitouch screens out of the box, but that
| doesnât matter, because Franceâs ENAC
| Interactive Computing Lab has put together a
| video demonstrating multitouch on a PC
| running Fedora 12 on what looks to be be a
| 10-inch touchscreen display.

Linux + Multitouch display = open source 10 fingered goodness
,----[ Quote ]
| In order to emulate these results, youâll need
| the Linux kernel 2.6.31, a modified version of
| X.org 1.7, and supported hardware and drivers.
| So weâre not quite at the point where you can
| just pick up a netbook with a multitouch
| display, install Fedora or another Linux
| distro, and expect to tap your way to bliss
| with up to 10 fingers on the screen. But weâre
| getting closer.

Multitouch screencast overload
,----[ Quote ]
| Going a bit more deeply on how KDE SC 4.4
| will support multitouch, here are 3 longer
| videos:
|
| The first one shows marble. Is now possible
| (with the usual disclaimer on devices and
| systems that support it, hoping it will
| become a more pervasive feature) to zoom
| the earth with a two fingers gesture,
| making a retty natural interacion
|
| OGG version
|
| The second one shows Plasma: it's possible
| to move, resize and rotate the widgets with
| two fingers, making them a bit more "real
| objects".
