Touching a new position didn't move the pointer

[Choong Kar Fai]

When touching a new position on the screen, the pointer was not moved to the new location. Originally, I thought that the problem was with my monitor (Acer T230H), that the new touch was not picked up. But after some testing, I noticed that the touch did get picked up and got translated to a "click", just that the pointer was moved.

For example, Assuming if my current pointer is on Button A and I now touch Button B. Button A will be "clicked" instead of Button B. I need to move my finger a little to trigger some movement, then the pointer will show up in the new position.

I have read bug #667802 and would like to check on the following: Bug #667802 is referring to touch not captured is the same case. For the above bug, the touch is captured (as a click), but the position of the pointer is not reflected. Therefore, the "new" touch will perform a click on the "old" position.

Is this the same problem as #667802?

Good question. To find out, please try the packages named test1 and test2 in the bug. If the first does not work but the latter does, then this is a different bug. If none of the packages work, an evemu test case as described in 667802 would be of great value. Thanks!

I will try it out accordingly but can only do it tomorrow. Will keep you
posted. Let's hope that it is the same problem. :)

Hi,

I am unable to install test1 and test2 because the files I found
https://bugs.launchpad.net/utouch-grail/+bug/667802 are for amd64. Where can
I get the files for i386?

I see - it is a bit difficult to reproduce those packages for i386 now, but
testing the test3, which is for your architecture, should hopefully get us a bit
further. If it works, everything is fine. If not, additional tests could be useful.

Thanks!
