Bug Description
[Impact]
Nexus7 and some Dell touch screen devices do not work well with nautilus. This makes browsing files almost impossible in these devices. Further it's frustrating to the user because there is nothing that makes it immediately apparent that
[Test Case]
1. Install Ubuntu
2. Double tap to open a folder in nautilus
[Regression Potential]
Low, this fix just affects touch screen devices.
[Original Description]
On the Nexus7 device double-tapping does not work in Nautilus. Even single taps are not always registered.
In thunar navigating via double tap works fine.
The mouse settings panel's double tap timeout test works fine.

I think that double-tap might be broken in general, not just for nautilus.

As per the initial comment, and as of the latest image, thunar and mouse settings both handle double tap fine.

- double tap does not open folders or files + double tap does not open folders or files in Nautilus |

For me on the nexus 7, double-tap doesn't work even in mouse settings. When I try 'Test Your Settings' it only ever detects a single click for a double-tap, even if I set the double-click speed to the slowest possible (or the fastest possible).

Would someone that has a nexus7 please test Cosmo Cecchi's patch? I can't reproduce the bug on my x220t.

I've uploaded the upstream patch to raring for testing, setting quantal to wontfix, we don't intend to spend lot of times on SRUs for it at this point since we are getting close from raring and quantal is not a LTS

I would appreciate it if someone with an effected machine could test raring to see if it is fixed. From there we can move to getting it in to Precise.

I tested the proposed Nautilus package on the following:
Dell Inspiron 5521 with an Elan touchscreen.
12.04.2 64-bit
Before the nautilus fix, the double-tapping on folders didn't work.
After apply the nautilus update in proposed, I can now double-tap to drill down into folders and launch files, applications, etc.

I can confirm that double-tap works on the touch screen of the Lenovo Thinpad Twist with Raring.
