Hello,
Does a touchscreen computer work fine with the Trinity Desktop ?
Thanks, regards,
André

Hi André,
I run two of these: Thinkpad x220t and Toshiba Z20t (with a screen that can act as a tablet). I also experienced a working install on a Microsoft Surface Pro 2 (but the keyboard and touchpad were very bad).

I have a Lenovo 700 and the touch screen works like a mouse it doesn't rotate and you can't do finger gestures. I keep hoping a new kernel will fix it but no luck so far.

I had to write some code to get screen rotation. I don't use finger gestures so I can't say anything about that.
I mostly use the pen when using the touchscreen, but I can handwrite. I can use my fingers as pointers but evolution is slow and my fingertips ahve not yet become fine enough foe touchscreens :)

I would be happy to test the code if you have it. I tried a few things I found online but nothing worked well it might turn the screen but input was still the other direction things like that. The laptop had touch when I bought it but that is not why I bought it if you know what I mean.

Here is my little coding. Nothing great: xrandr, xsetwacom, and a little tcl/tk to link eveything.
The real code is at the end of the tcl script.
Now, it will depend on your machine. xsetwacom, obviously, works only with wacom digitizer or wacom compatible digitizers.
The "TouchKontrol" part solves the problem of paltouch when writing. I could not setup a palmrecognition so I simply turn of touch when I write. this works only if your device has an "active pen".

Thanks I'll test it this weekend.
