Bug Description
I am using the pre-release 16.04 Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch) with kernel 4.4.0-15-generic on a Dell Venue 11 Pro 7140. Touchscreen and Stylus are recognised out of the box:
xinput --list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Synaptics T Pad V 01.31 Touchpad id=9 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SYNA7500:00 06CB:780E Pen id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SYNA7500:00 06CB:780E id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
When I am manually rotating the screen by 90° using the System Settings option (automatic screen rotation does not work), the touchscreen and touchpad work as expected, however, the stylus is not using the correct coordinates and the cursor is not following the stylus position. When I move the stylus left/right, the cursor moves up/down, and vice versa.
I had hoped to get a work around by disabling and re-enabling the stylus after rotating the screen using
xinput --disable "SYNA7500:00 06CB:780E Pen"
xinput --enable "SYNA7500:00 06CB:780E Pen"
but this didn't solve the problem.
