vik (askvictor) wrote : Touchscreen unusual in multi-head system

Binary package hint: xorg

I'm using a touchscreen laptop (fujitsu T4410). Touchscreen works fine, but when I plug an (non-touchscreen) external monitor in and go dual-head, the touch functionality 'stretches' across the multiple screens. e.g. I have the external monitor above the laptop monitor. When I touch the bottom of the touchscreen, the touch is (almost) correct. When I touch the top of the touchscreen, the pointer goes to the top of the external monitor. Same situation in the vertical dimension.

What should happen is that touch events only occur on the touchscreen monitor

This may be tricky, as the touch driver (for this particular machine) is wacom, so the machine probably sees the touch device as a wacom pen tablet.
